I remember when George Floyd was killed or murdered, whichever is your preference, that the people I know were fed up, and agreed there needed to be police reform.

Then BLM or the left got hold of it and turned it all into, either you agree with them a hundred percent or you are a racist. No chance for discussion or debate with hate flying everywhere. Similar to what the Trans movement is doing now. It's all very sad, because it's a wasted opportunity that is now gone.

For those who defend Black Lives Matter: Most of what you are describing as its accomplishments are really the accomplishments of the slogan, and of the spontaneous arising of demonstrations that gave rise to that slogan. The BLM organization did nothing but co-op that slogan and collect money on it's alleged behalf. A court ruled many years ago, when someone tried to sue BLM, that there was no such organization, and therefore couldn't be sued. It was only much later that (a couple of )organizations claimed to be BLM and started collecting money in its name. There was even a lawsuit over who had the right to use the name.
