blm chicago is trying to walk back their posts moonshinegnomie Oct 2023 #25

Excusing slaughter of innocents as something that Hamas "must do" isn't walking it back. onenote Oct 2023 #27

Apparently, it works for some who call themselves liberal/progressive. Behind the Aegis Oct 2023 #30

Seems less a walk back sarisataka Oct 2023 #32

The BLM Chicago Twitter account started in February 2015 was an 8-year long plot by Republicans... BlueCheeseAgain Oct 2023 #37

So, you're saying the OP is a lie? Wednesdays Oct 2023 #46

I'm saying that the idea that the BLM Chicago account is run by Republicans is wrong. BlueCheeseAgain Oct 2023 #47

Just remember that Russia now runs Xitter. SouthernDem4ever Oct 2023 #40

The BLM Chicago Twitter and FB accounts were set up in 2015 BlueCheeseAgain Oct 2023 #43

by whom? SouthernDem4ever Oct 2023 #49

Presumably by BLM Chicago. BlueCheeseAgain Oct 2023 #50

I can imagine them doing worse things than that SouthernDem4ever Oct 2023 #53

Then do you also doubt the statement from the national BLM? BlueCheeseAgain Oct 2023 #55

I am tired of the word "movement" SouthernDem4ever Oct 2023 #56

Right around the time Russia was launching a massive disinformation operation to upend the election? W_HAMILTON Oct 2023 #51
