The memo allows US diplomats to fly the Black Lives Matter flag outside of embassies
The Department of State under President Biden issued guidance to all "Diplomatic and Consular posts" encouraging official displays of support for Black Lives Matter (BLM) on the one-year anniversary of George Floyd’s murder on May 25 and beyond, according to a new report.
According to a leaked memo from an anonymous State Department source, the department wrote that it "supports the use of the term ‘Black Lives Matter’ in messaging content" as well as in speeches and foreign diplomatic engagements on May 25 "and beyond."
The memo allows U.S. diplomats to fly the Black Lives Matter flag outside of embassies. Fox News verified the authenticity of the memo first reported by Human Events, a conservative American political news and analysis newspaper and website.

I'll ask again:
When was the last time the US Govt flew a special interest group's political slogans over its embassies?
DO they make a habit of flying controversial and bias political slogans?
Do they fly the DNC or RNC flags? How about the NRA flag?

They want to "Matter".
That's a low bar in terms of a goal. How hard could mattering be?

Nope...think back a year ago when all this hit the fan. Remember when employees in corporations were excoriated for suggesting that if people could display BLM stuff, than they should be able to display All Lives Matter, Blue Lives Matter or MAGA stuff? Remember the response?
Those are POLITICAL messages and as such would be prohibited by their already existing rules. But, Black Lives Matter was NOT political, it was a human rights issue and as such allowed.
Basically, they simply called one political message non-political and allowed it while maintaining their stance on all others. it was also how they party fooled idiot white women into seeing BLM as a non-political movement.
hell...I had some social media person on Eddie Bauer's Facebook page argue with me that BLM was a human rights issue and if I disagreed I could take my money elsewhere.

Well the last leftist in the White House armed and bankrolled terrorists. I guess the next leftist merely flying a terrorist flag is some level of improvement.

The government we voted for…wink, wink.

BLM is a terrorist organization.
The United States is a state sponsor of terrorism.

This goes back to the other thread of “are you proud to be an American”?

Democrats are diabolical evil people that destroy everything.
I bet an assistant wearing a cross on her necklace would get her fired by these people.
