    Reminds me of my supervisor. He don't want to pay for news either, but he likes to let me pay for it and then take the WSJ and the Economist off my desk when I get through with them. :)

    That's why I need context. Because what I did get to read sounded like the same ol' same ol'... Maybe they were getting ready to refute it, but I'll never know unless they let me read it.

    Damm dudes, you guys are tearing it up on the subject of BLM, 169 pages of comments, so forgive me if this has already been mentioned but the light bulb just came on for me concerning why so many corporations have donated millions of dollars to this start up. I first thought was they were attempting to pay tribute to BLM so BLM would possibly not come for the old white man CEOs that sit at the head of these companies and this could be the case, But my thoughts are the payment of millions to BLM have little to do with appeasement but more to do with good old fashioned bribery. The only way a group like BLM can stay independent of corporations is to not take their money. Once any organization starts to rely on a corporation for support the hook is set and the corporation is in a position to direct policy. Just another episode of GOT, with life imitating art.

    Except that doesn't seem to be what's happening. Seems to me like they're paying "protection money" to stay in the good graces of the SJW mob. Now the tail is wagging the dog. If the corporations think that they won't bite the hand that's feeding them, they're mistaken. These are not domesticated animals we're talking about.

    Pardon me while I adjust my tin foil hat but as I see it the world is in a struggle between Marxist ideology on one hand and wealth and power on the other. The Marxist are the truth believers . Marxist to them is much like an absolute and divine religion. The reality is power really lies in the hands of a few hundred possibly a thousand individuals/ families spread around the world (think of guys with Multiple Billions in assets, more money than some small countries). International communism ended with China being accepted into the World Trade Organization and is communist in name only with China's wealth being controlled by a oligarchy. Is America in danger of communism today? Hell yes, but it comes from our own homegrown communist/religious fanatics who are worshipping a false god and they want to impose their religion on the rest of us. The real powers remain hidden behind the curtain and may or may not let the fanatics have their way, just depends on if that benefits the power behind the curtain.

    Wow, you dug deep in the past to find that. And to be fair, I'm not sure Kut's definition is completely valid four years later, so not exactly fair - BLM has become a lot more militant and Marxist in those four years.


    Nah.... to anyone paying attention, it's been pretty clear from the very beginning what these ass wipes are.

    I think the most disturbing thing in that clip is the Democrat leadership lead by Nancy Pelosi taking a knee before the cameras in subservience to the BLM political movement. Oh and Romney is still an asshat opportunist looking out for his own self relevance first and foremost.

    The bottom line is that BLM isn't interested in equality for everyone. They want everyone to be a subservient majority to their political movement in the fundamental transformation of this country.

    I will NEVER take that knee.

    It may very well be the movement that destroys our Republic.

    Not sure about that. I believe BLM is a movement that is backed by socialists that are using blacks as an avenue. I certainly believe BLM will advance the movement but sooner or later blacks will see they have become slaves to the socialists that are using them. When that happens, BLM will not be the same or even become non-existent; however, the the socialists will be much closer to their agenda.

    BLM are slaves to a socialist agenda.

    I truly pray you are 100% correct and I am 100% wrong.

    The 60 years or so it has taken black voters to only begin to question their allegiance to the Democrats makes me wonder if we have sufficient time for them to recognize the danger of BLM. I think what is more likely to save us is God and our own strong right arms

    Malcolm X told them that they were “political chumps” back in 1965, and they aren’t “woke” to that fact yet.

    The leaders, according to their own words, are “trained Marxists”. But I do think the leadership has a different goal than the rank and file supporters have.
