To be clear: BLM has profoundly overdue grievances. And this action might have been their best current idea to shake up presumably complacent (albeit sympathetic) "white liberals," etc. (Though one hopes they have some GOP-shaking planned as well...)

But we do know this as well: If they're not infiltrated yet (and the probably are) they certainly will be. As will the Sanders campaign. (I've gone through this personally with environmental work in the 80's).

So: If suggestions are increasingly made that increasingly fracture any kind of "progressive movement" (regardless of the issue, we've seen this pattern before), and that movement, or movements, wind up negating themselves, "falling out," and becoming ineffective, well, whose interests does that ultimately serve?

We just need to be aware that the array of powerful interests, against BLM, against the Sanders campaign, against any kind of deep, meaningful structural change, are obviously not giving up a damn thing without a fight.

And they never fight fair.
