    There are nonprofits that basically do this. Pretty sure that's SPLC's modus operandi. They show up with "it sure would be a shame if your company made it on the racist list, you should donate to some anti racist causes (us)".

    People posts images (having text) instead of text to Twitter to avoid getting censored.

    Here's one that's interesting. Perhaps one of the MDs here will tell us if its bs or not. I type it below for your convenience:
    I suggest you read this before you continue wearing those masks 24/7.

    Be careful healthy people, shared from a friend:
    My daughter, 19 yrs old. Healthy. Frontline worker at a huge grocery store chain. Started feeling sick about two weeks ago. Side and back pain. Nausea...Chest pain. Primary doc sent her for chest x-ray. Something "lit up" on right side. Sent for MRI. Cat scan. Ultra sound of back and abdomen areas...NOTHING.

    While at work was unable to breath. Chest pain. Rushed to e.r. Quarantined. tested for covid. Young By herself because no one can be with her.

    Turns out its pleurisy...An infection of the outside of the lining of the lungs They basically tell her...It's because she has been wearing a mask for over 8 hours a day 5-6 days a week. Carbon dioxide...caused an infection. And now she is in sever pain. Has to be off work with no pay. But you won't see that on social media! She's 19. Healthy. And now is bed bound and struggling to breath.

    Antibiotics. Steroids. Breathing treatments.

    While you are correct, Bidet is emulating Lady Clinton in many details. Most particularly his isolation, which he and the DNC are hiding behind the pretext of compliance with the Kung Flu Prime Directives.

    Watch approach a podium with his mask on and then take off at the last minute before speaking. Does that project strength and certitude? What amazes me is that the MSM doesn't edit the mask on/mask off ritual out of the view of the public. Like they did with FDR's polio along with his wheel chair, crutches, and leg braces.

These groups aren't affiliated with any old USSR faction I don't think, though they do have a lot of communist/socialist inclinations and definitely use a lot of their sneaky manipulative plays. I'm sure there are foreign actors pushing this forward, BLM has already been tied to Maduro in Venezuela at least as far as public friendly appearances. But that's nothing new, Venezuela was trying to meddle in the US using black activism before he ever took power. But you can tell BLM has been doing all sorts of hinky shit with their money with the most cursory examination. Their money trail is as obfuscated and opaque as any rich fucker trying to hoodwink the tax man. These puppetmaster organizations I think are more the result of people coping with the fact that the presidency of Barack Obama did not magically fix things. He was supposed to be liberal Jesus but really nothing changed. Some of the shit people hated Dubya for actually got worse. Race relations took a pronounced dive. And now Trump has become president somehow. Clearly, nothing is wrong with their agenda and policies, it is all the fault of the phantom enemy, the white supremacy that lurks in all things and must be uncovered and purged by woke inquisitors.
    I have heard this comment from a few other people who have watched Bezmenov's videos, so I want to clarify why I and many others keep bringing it up:

    1. The Soviets may be gone, but their subversion tactics were in place during the formative educational phase of several generations up until the early 90's. Even after the Soviet empire collapsed, the Marxist bureaucrats, educators, propagandists and "journalists" from the KGB operations remained and have continued the work of subversion. As the USSR collapsed, China became powerful enough to begin its own ideological subversion campaign. It has not stopped. Most of the people who are in power today have been demoralized, blackmailed or bought off through a very long term ideological subversion campaign that has driven us to our current "mainstream" cultural perceptions.

    2. The socialist playbook that Bezmenov described is overt, out in the open and being followed closely. A thousand years ago, people might have looked back and called this man a prophet.

    3. Bezmenov does give us a solution that is just as effective today as it was at the time of his interview: Strongly support nationalism and DO NOT fund the leftists. We must DEMAND that trade with China be halted. We must DEMAND that terrorist organizations like BLM not be given money.

    I also found this lecture from Yuri very informative: YouTube It is eerily prescient and ties together the majority of thoughts/reactions that have been written in this 400 page thread.

    BLM is not an organic uprising. An organic uprising does not have to pay protesters, conduct vast fundraising operations, create large-scale public relations campaigns or rely on hundreds of millions of dollars in grants, outside personnel support and outside organizational support.

    To correct my prior post on BLM finances, they use other organizations as their financial arm. So, when they receive the commitment for over a $100 million in financial support, as they did in 2015/2016, it never shows up on their books and their payments can never be traced. This is how people like Soros can claim with plausible deniability that they do not fund BLM. They simply fund the non-profit organization that gives grants to the organizations that make payments on behalf of BLM. It is also why they are essentially immune to litigation; BLM Foundation does not actually ever handle the money, so if victims sue, they are suing a shell organization that will not be able to pay out legal settlements. And it is impossible to legally attribute intent or knowledge to the support organizations or donors that handle BLM's finances. Even now, it appears the donations to BLM do not actually go to BLM; They are funnelled through a Democrat organization called Act Blue to somewhere else.

    As others have noted, there are many companies that are being extorted into donating millions of dollars to the terrorist BLM organization, even while many of the companies are laying off employees, closing stores and financially restructuring. (These lists are being censored off the internet in most places. There are larger lists I do not want to link to, because they will be censored from the platforms if they are noticed). If you are employed by one of these companies, you have noticed that you will be fired or not considered for promotion if you oppose; for you, it is best to pretend you are one of them while anonymously undercutting their agenda and trying to climb the ladder to a position of influence.

    The Cold War never ended; it became a new form of cold guerrilla warfare.

    I have a client who works in diversity and inclusion. He’s happy to share that his salary is about 160k, but he can’t explain exactly what the fuck he does. Seems like he doesn’t work at all. Free money to be made in this business.

    Haha. I see what you’re saying now. I thought equality of outcome was “equity theory”. My mistake. Being a progressive would be very confusing.

    It would seem that being a student of history has no corollation to business savvy.

    These companies are nothing more than a host to be used by these parasites until no longer needed. Then they'll turn on them too.

    This is a pretty chilling - though not that surprising - description of what's wrong with policing in America:

    Confessions of a Former Bastard Cop - Officer A. Cab - Medium

    I'd be super interested in your all's take on it -- especially those of you with time served.
