Black Lives Matter Co-Founder in 2015: ‘We Are Trained Marxists’
Breitbart ^ | 06/23/20 | KYLE MORRIS

Posted on 06/23/2020 7:15:03 AM PDT by Enlightened1

A short, but wide-ranging, 2015 interview with Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors revealed that many of those within the movement, including Cullors, consider themselves to be “trained Marxists.”

In a moment of discussion regarding the lack of ideological direction within the movement, Cullors argued that the movement does “have an ideological frame.”

“Myself and Alicia [Garza] in particular are trained organizers,” Cullors said in an interview with the Real News Network. “We are trained Marxists. We are super-versed on, sort of, ideological theories.”

“We don’t necessarily want to be the vanguard of this movement,” Cullors continued. “I think we’ve tried to put out a political frame that’s about centering who we think are the most vulnerable amongst the black community, to really fight for all of our lives.”

Cullors went on to say in 2015 that she believed “we have some clear direction around where we want to take this movement,” adding at the time that she did not believe “it’s going to fizzle out.”

The question regarding a larger ideological presence within the Black Lives Matter movement was asked of Cullors in response to criticism from Jalil Abdul Muntaqim, a prisoner who, along with two others, was convicted of killing two police officers in Harlem in 1971.

Muntaqim, who has received little support from many members within the movement, said he believed the movement would fizzle out.

An ideological perspective is defined as the theory by which a person or group bases their moral judgement. This point of view often determines how a group or individual will act when faced with a societal or moral challenge.

........

However, more evolved minds are able to alter their own ideology based on experiences and education. Unfortunately, with so many differing signals, it can be difficult for a young person to sort truth from opinion.

Tucker calls burn/loot/murder the most powerful political party in the U.S. They are ‘trained’ marxists. Let that sink in....

The Left are the people that the House UnAmerican Activities Committee was rightly and correctly convened to oppose. Just being a Marxist should ruin your life.

And it’s sponsored by Soros...cause ya know, the “O’bozo’s” never spent a penny of their own money on ANYTHING!

It gives a whole new dimension to the phrase, ‘money to burn’!!

“Just being a Marxist should ruin your life.”

Marxists should be exiled to a Devil’s Island type place where they have to fend for themselves without any capitalists to steal from.

If their ideology is valid, they should view that as a paradise. If they try to escape, they would just prove that their ideology is garbage.

What’s worse than a marxist?

A “lesbian“ marxist that’s been made mayor, governor or congresscritter.
They’re full-blown rabid communists that need to be dealt with in the worst way.

There are a LOT of us that are trained marksmen.

The rioters are very easy to spot.

The trained marksmen among us are very difficult to spot.

They could be a young looking 21 year old or a Vietnam war vet.

That is one thing Tucker is wrong about.
Let BLM field their own candidate for President and let's see how many votes they get.
Tucker is allowing himself to be unduly influenced by that one Rasmussen poll which had BLM approval at 65%.
Personally I think that poll is nonsense. With all respect to Rasmussen.

Trained Marxists huh?
Trained by who?
And what do they know about “Das Kapital”, The Great October Revolution, Marxist Leninism, Mao Tse Tung and the Chinese communist revolution or any of the communist revolutions that took place long before their parents were born?
It takes more than looting and toppling statues to be a real Marxist.
