The idea that BLM stands for just a single thing ("black people are people too") is absurd. It's very open to interpretation and people want a wide variety of things in supporting it.
You aren't helping any person by arguing in bad faith (ex. your other comment in this tree: "Do you think that black people's lives don't matter?"). In fact, you're turning away people who would otherwise be allies, and believe in the common cause of humanity, but will never go along with all the woke song and dance bullshit.
IMO, They could get a lot more people looking at the issue if they talked about this more.
