re: This is why "All Lives Matter" is a stupid hill to die on

Honestly, it took me longer than it should have to just do the basic research into BLM and the clowns who ‘founded’ it.

After that, it’s plain to see that getting distracted by the BLM racism canard is exactly what they want...

All we are is dust in the wind.....

The marxist BLM group will fade quickly if people will stop picking at the wound. Ignore them.

Remember the Occupy movement?

Trump would be wise to start delineating between the "movement", the "organization", and the "interlopers".

This is how you win black support. The movement carries broad black sympathy. No one supports police brutality and we all want to crush racism.

The BLM organization has been highjacked by white leftists, they've adopted Marxist platforms, and are funneling money to white democrat and socialist candidates.

The interlopers are the white anarchists, commie millennials, and criminal opportunists that have consistently turned protests into riotous chaos.

Trump needs to carefully play to the movement while denouncing the rest. This allows the movement to absolve itself from the sins of the organization and interlopers, and it allows Trump to appease sane whites and blacks while attacking the organized hard left.

exactly

and "All Lives Matter" is a shiny hook

if people stopped falling for the trick, the fake controversy of ALM will die, and people will have to look at the actual BLM movement

so, to go back to the title:

"All lives matter" is really stupid, does nothing of substance, may severely negatively affect your life, and will fuel BLM while shielding its insane policies

vs.

researching the actual beliefs and policies of BLM will expose them for the insanity that they are

I get what you are trying to say, but having BLM reject such a comment is just as damaging to their cause

the problem is, it's not

in an objectively rational world? sure. but BLM isn't built on objectivity or rationality in any way, so why would those who support it value those things?

You really should let someone else do your titles. This one may be your worst.

We would have to work in shifts.

Contradicting logic.

Saying “all lives matter” isn’t meant to sway actual BLM supporters anymore than pointing out their loony Marxist tendencies is.

Both serve the same purpose of showing your average American how evil the organization is.

The sad thing about BLM is that the average African-American who isn’t a Marxist but nonetheless feels attention needs to be paid to racial inequality is having their cause misappropriated by those who have a broader agenda.

It must be frustrating to jump atop the racial inequality horse, only to find that a bunch of other people are riding the same horse for completely different reasons. In short, they’re being used for political purposes.
