Flynn claims about BLM in article extreme?

[Harel13]

That's a good article. It seems a fair assessment thus far.

Agreed. Perhaps that's why it's the first result when searching for BLM Marxists...

I'm inherently suspicious of an author who thinks promoting "the abolition of systems and institutions of white supremacy" is proof that BLM is using anti-racism as a "Trojan horse" for communism.

This from a libertarian author who thinks of himself as a "moderate" despite promoting an ideology of capitalist extremism.

What puzzles me is why even mention political affiliation if a movement is to be regarded as neutral in that regard.

Presumably because it's not neutral?

I mean yeah, I agree with you that it doesn't sound like a wise decision.

I think one of the red flags was the call for defunding the police. I think a lot of Marxist revolutions started with that particular call with those who replace the police in such revolutions turns out to be much worse.

I can't think of even one socialist revolution that started out that way.
