From my non-American perspective, while i dont have enough info to agree or disagree with that position I'm also not sure whats so absurd about it. Ok so for sure 100% of KKK members are racist and it's obv a lower % of BLM who are racists from what I have seen they too have a fair number of far left extremists esp in leadership roles.
So really they both seem extremists to me, you have far left in BLM and Anitfa and Far right with the KKK and the Alt-right. It's basically Communists vs Nazis and the moderate people on both sides need to be condemning the extremists on their own side while trying to find common ground to with the moderates on the opposite side.
Right now it seems to me like the opposite is happening, many people on the right seem to view all Leftists as anti-White Communists and the left see all Conservatives as White supremacist Nazis. In reality the majority on both sides would be the moderates but its the extremists that make the most noise and the longer this continues the more moderates will turn into extremists.

Cmoney had an ever better post that was similar to this that he erased so I need to quote this quick. It's the strangest thing ever that Druff (being a Republican) has attracted an almost exclusive far far left user base. You would think they would have it at least 50/50 since everyone is just role playing anyway.
remember the anti trump loon that shot his county republican committee member neighbor in the head 5 days ago? LOL @ anybody thinking the msm is trying to inform u and not trying to persuade you to give power to their bosses
BLMers prolly stayed home or voted for someone other than Hillary. Hillary totally dissed this BLM protester last year. And they most likely never forgave her for her role in promoting Bill Clinton's get-tough-on-crime-especially-super-predators and reform-welfare legislative campaigns while Clinton was fighting to win the support of suburban white voters with his triangulation strategy of peeling away swing Republicans voters during the 1996 election season.
Here's a vid that definitely made the rounds among BLMers last year. And watch how dismissive Hillary was of that young protester.
Here was Jason;s second press conference he alluded to.
BLM was founded for the purpose of standing up to racial persecution (e.g., stopping police brutality against black people). the KKK is a literal hate group that is founded on white supremacy and the inferiority of black people/jews, etc.
this equivalence is like blaming both the jews and the nazis for the holocaust.
honestly, i'm really not a huge fan of the BLM movement as most of them seem like idiots. the notion that "all sides are equally bad" is just crazy though
im genuinely not sure who you are at this point. the kkk is a radical christian terrorist organization that strung black men up for the crime of nothing. blm is a grass roots organization that was created in response to police murdering black men with total impunity.
i desperately want to believe youre drunk, otherwise this post of yours is a serious game changer regarding my opinion of you.

BLM has been garbage since ferguson MO and needs to be rebranded w/o shaun king FTR
Ok yeah that makes sense it's not the best example to go compare BLM to the KKK as one is 100% Far Right White Supremacist and the other, while it obv has some Far Left racist leaders and members, it's not a primarily Far Left racist organization.
However if we were comparing Far Right vs Far Left ideologies I'd absolutely argue they are both as bad as each other. The communists in the former USSR and other countries and the nazis are both responsible for untold numbers of dead bodies and as such should both be condemned no matter what political side you are on.

Without repeating my reply to blake re:BLM I'm someone who thinks both Far Right and Far Left ideologies are very dangerous as history has proven and we should all be careful to avoid going down that road again.
I've always been left leaning on major issues such as free education, free healthcare, affordable housing, being paid a living wage and reducing wealth disparity. However in recent years it seems like the left spends more time focusing on things like safe spaces, respecting pronouns, cultural appropriation and playing gender politics which just doesn't do it for me.
Then when people disagree with this the Far Left doesnt want to talk and tries to silence them by calling them far right or nazis like what happened to Jordan Peterson at UofT and Brett Weinstein at Evergreen College.
So right now I'm maybe just an interested voyeur who thinks both extremes are fucked and are leading down a very dark path but dont worry you're no more likely to see me waving a Communist Flag than a Nazi one lol
There was a BLM booth at Lollapalooza last week and ironically the only ppl that showed 'interest' were white (crowd was 90% white to be fair).
When did BLM take over? What happened to the Black Panthers? That would be amazing if the Panthers just re-branded themselves in a way that made white people want to join.
