Another Day, Another Leftist Movement Sinks Thanks to Hypocritical Leadership

I could tell you I’ve made it abundantly clear that Black Lives Matter was never about black lives, but was a political movement bent on getting Democrats elected via social outrage and false accusations of racism. I could tell you that, but I think Black Lives Matter itself made that pretty obvious themselves.

And because it was a movement that wasn’t about the people it said it was, it was doomed to die. Usually, political movements like that have few beneficiaries, many of them already at the top. BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors is one such person who is now stepping down from her position as executive director after her “trained Marxist” self was discovered to have a very capitalistic attitude, and was swimming in enough money to afford expensive properties.

Now she’s stepping down, with claims that she’s doing so because she wants to dedicate more time to writing her book and buckling down on her television deal with Warner Bros. What she’s not saying is that she’s trying to avoid any more negative press and calls for her finances to be investigated. Cullors denies receiving a salary from the foundation, but many suspect that she’d been using donations to the BLM foundation to pay herself.

Ms. Trained Marxist, however, claims she got the money from her book sales and YouTube deal.

Now video has now surfaced of her calling for an end to Israel.

It’ll be interesting to see if YouTube and Warner Bros. want to continue working with someone promoting the genocide of an entire people in the same way Nazis did before their party was buried, but my gut tells me it won’t be a bother. Besides, Black Lives Matter was one of the largest political parties in American history that didn’t actually register as a political party.

But with Cullors gone, what happens to the movement? Time will tell, but we can look at another leftist movement where the leaders were hypocritical, wealthy, and antisemitic to boot.

Remember The Women’s March? For months it was all anyone could ever talk about. It popped up after Trump was elected, with the running narrative being that Trump was such a misogynistic bigot that women everywhere were outraged about his place in the White House. The marches attracted insane numbers of feminists with speakers such as Madonna who said she wanted to bomb the White House, an attack on the capitol that the left didn’t seem to mind about.

But behind the “pussy hats,” dumb signs, and screeching feminists looking to make daddy angry were the founders of the Women’s March, Bob Bland, Tamika Mallory, Cameron Perez, and Linda Sarsour.

These were the four horsewomen of the fempocolypse that would take a movement specifically meant to hurt Trump and the Republican party’s image to grease the wheels for more support for Democrats, to end with a whimper thanks to the evil they brought with them.

To name a few instances where things began really going downhill, Meghan McCain attempted to get Mallory to condemn hate preacher Louis Farrakhan’s antisemitic remarks while on The View. Mallory refused to. Sarsour was even worse, and would repeatedly bash Israel and the Jewish people, at one point in time claiming that the flagging support for the Democrat party was all thanks to Israel and that her own unpopularity among the people was the fault of the “Jewish media.”

Altogether, the girls were a racist bunch of antisemites who would even berate their own according to insiders:

We sat in that room for hours. Tamika told us that the problem was that there were five white women in the room and only three women of color, and that she didn’t trust white women. Especially white women from the South. At that point, I kind of tuned out because I was so used to hearing this type of talk from Tamika. But then I noticed the energy in the room changed. I suddenly realized that Tamika and Carmen were facing Vanessa, who was sitting on a couch, and berating her—but it wasn’t about her being white. It was about her being Jewish. “Your people this, your people that.” I was raised in the South and the language that was used is language that I’m very used to hearing in rural South Carolina. Just instead of against black people, against Jewish people. They even said to her ‘”your people hold all the wealth.” You could hear a pin drop. It was awful.

The problem became so pervasive that a human rights award from Friedrich Ebert Foundation was stripped from The Women’s March thanks to the racism and antisemitism of its leadership and even went so far as to denounce the movement. Theresa Shook, the creator of The Women’s March, publicly called for the women to step down as the movement had become far too toxic.

What happened to the Women’s March from there? Almost nothing. It more or less disappeared off the face of the Earth. What’s more, whatever women got out of the Women’s March wasn’t much, but then again, it wasn’t really about women. It never was.

Like Black Lives Matter, it was about installing leftist ideals into the people in order to further advance the Democrat party and those who work around it. It enriched all the right people and left next to nothing for those who actually needed something. Whatever conversations we might have had that would actually improve things were left in the background, completely overshadowed by mainstream finger-pointing and radical-left narrative creation.

Like many leftist movements, it wasn’t real. It was an act meant to create and energize a voting base. It was a narrative machine used to paint people who didn’t deserve it as evil.

It was a lie.
