re: #289 Decatur Deb

You’re not really giving BLM much shrift in that statement. If they’re doing counterproductive things, loudly, in an election year, that definitely trips a flare. So I’m standing with my suspicion—one chance in four they were sourced or quickly co-opted by the party that wanted Sanders and HRC gone.

You think they are counterproductive. I think the DNC’s platform has included the movement’s goals, and not let the Democratic primary focus solely on economic and foreign policy issues. I think personally, that wishing the movement was quieter, is kind of disconcerting. When your message is ‘stop shooting us for no reason’, how quiet or polite should you be?
