(CNNMoney) For at least a year, the biggest page on Facebook purporting to be part of the Black Lives Matter movement was a scam with ties to a middle-aged white man in Australia, a review of the page and associated accounts and websites conducted by CNN shows.

Middle-aged white men can't support BLM?

Probably most BLM activities are by white people

So all of the people are real, but a guy in Australia found a way to profit off of it?
Nice.
Nice.

Did he do it to take advantage or is he a bleeding heart?
I feel like it could be made by a white guy who legitimately cares, but it doesn't fit expectations so they call it fake.

As long as he started the conversation

So he's a white Jesse Jackson? Seems racist to call one a scam and the other not.

The convo can't be started by a white man. That's white privilege.

Dr. Jeff Hood is the epitome of a white Jesse Jackson.

Why is this a scam?

I'd say at least 45% of them are..lol.. I have no idea how that information could be found, but it would be interesting to see.
Think about after the AS shooting. I think there were a handful of people who peacefully protested by walking to the capital or something. Then the busses started rolling into the town.
All of a sudden you see a bunch of hippie white people and "militant" type black people who didn't know one thing about this community. Some black bitch from New York went stand out in the middle of the road, where she was told she would be arrested if she went into... So she goes out in the road, the police start doing what they told her they would do, the next day she is on the front page of magazines claiming what she did was heroic, etc.
Call me crazy, but if it wasn't an election year I don't think that whole AS story would have been a nationwide story. BLM was in full force in 2016 then election comes around and you don't really hear much about it.
Social media has become weaponized and the only way to fight it is to not allow yourself to react emotionally whenever you see news headlines about topics that piss you off.

Absolutely. There is a reason Antifa and BLM have been very quiet recently. The only real BLM shite lately is Sacramento. There have been three black men killed by Baton Rouge police since Sterling without a peep. Sterling just happened to be a questionable enough video at a time that it could be exploited. None of the last three black men killed by police since then have any video of the shootings and nobody has said a word.

Cultural appropriation.

Given that the biological link between gender and sex has been called into question is it a similar use of logic to argue the link between race and ancestry is purely a social construct?
In other words who are we to judge the guy as caucasian? Or old? Or a man?
Perhaps the man(?) is a victim who deserves our support.

Gravy is just a big of scam artist. He could give two shits about the black community... it's all about the profit. Silky Slime proved it
