I'm not quite sure what to make of this. It's curious.

The founder of a Black Lives Matter (BLM) organization is voicing his support of Jan. 6 prisoners and not shying away from endorsing former President Donald Trump as “the best candidate we have.”
...
Just as legacy media has distorted what happened at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, by accusing Trump supporters of a violent insurrection, Mr. Fisher said BLM has been blamed for the 2020 summer riots, though there were outside parties like the far-left extremist group Antifa that were a source of chaos.
“Antifa had a lot to do with the riots of 2020, and there were a lot of anarchist groups who just wanted to take advantage of the moment and were out for destruction,” he said.
...
Mr. Fisher didn’t speak highly of the Democratic Party. “It’s a racist party with racist policies that negatively impact black families,” he said. “Black people are stuck on that plantation, mentally. They’re slaves in their own minds because they refuse to see the big picture and how we’ve been used and abused by the Democratic Party with policies that are absolutely antithetical to what black people yearn for in this country, which is life, liberty, freedom, the pursuit of happiness, and a family to raise.”
Mr. Fisher equally distrusts the Republican Party, which he said is its own corrupt institution.
“This is why Donald Trump is so popular,” he said. “He’s anti-institution. He can’t be bought. He can’t be sold. He’s going to give it to you straight and keep it real and those who relate to that love that about him. If you look at both parties and the potential candidates—including the current president and vice president—I think he’s the best candidate we have. It’s a no-brainer.”
....
Many people in the black community are secretly behind President Trump and want to see him back in office, Mr. Fisher said.
“They won’t say it in public in fear of backlash from the community because they have reputations, businesses, and relationships they don’t want to put in jeopardy, but they’ll speak with their vote,” he said.
“Antifa had a lot to do with the riots of 2020, and there were a lot of anarchist groups who just wanted to take advantage of the moment and were out for destruction,” he said.
He is right antifa was there and other instigators too, but I saw the videos, and his thugs were right in the thick of it. He doesn't get a pass for coming out for Trump. Fuck him and the BLM horse he rode in on.
Agreed, but he's also right about the anarchists and also the opportunists.
Most people who do this stuff for BLM are doing it for the chaos, the loot and the paycheck.
He just needs to take a few more steps and see that strings were being pulled, even if they left him out of the loop.
He has just become a great tool to wake up those still in BLM, looks like he woke up.
What if the FBI and ANTIFA set up BLM, just like they did to the J6 peaceful protesters?
Or, do we not believe that the FBI and ANTIFA are capable of doing such a thing to black people?
As far as I know, other BLM founders were Marxist activists. I think its possible that some people go in for sincere reasons, but are also uninformed and unaware of other factors behind the scenes, such as the possibility you mention here: FBI or other agencies, etc, orchestrating a set-up.
This is why I find this curious. His support for Trump and his denouncing of the uniparty is a very good thing. On the other hand, can he really be that ignorant? Possibly BLM was infiltrated while he was looking the other way.
So the J6 peaceful protesters were set up. I agree, but then the evidence shows they were peaceful protesters.
The FBI set up BLM? But here is the rub; how did they make them loot, burn, and murder people?
No where near the same comparison.
The point is: How do we know that it was really "them" (BLM) who was directing all of the burn, loot, murder? How exactly are we supposed to identify "them"? I guess if the FIB says they can positively identify the terrorists because they found the ID of a "lone gunman" in the burned wreckage, we should all just accept that as a positive identification for who is responsible, and the peasants should declare war against the other peasants, without further question- Is that how we roll?
