When you see “black lives matter,” just think of it as “black lives matter, too.” That’s what it really means. It was never meant to be “only black lives matter.” Absolutely nobody thinks it should mean that.

You are absolutely correct.
Putting aside the violence that has occurred in some locations, by a small percentage of those hiding within the various BLM protests and that almost no one supports this lawbreaking, getting to the root of the misdirection, broad-brush painting and outright lies about BLM by so many white people, boils down to one simple thing (as proved by so many posts and threads here on TOTV). That being that most whites know they hold the vast majority of wealth, power and influence and just the thought of being forced to sharing those things by allowing equality for ALL, scares them to their very souls.
Our nation was actually founded on one huge and obvious lie, in that the Founding Father's did not really believe that
"All men are created equal." Saving the fact for another thread in that they were also only talking about men and not women, the FF's purposely only meant white men and not all men. There were also many who wanted to only include land-holding white men, thus further narrowing who they considered "ALL" men.
