    Explain please.

    Also: The authors define violent demonstrations as including “acts targeting other individuals, property, businesses, other rioting groups or armed actors.” Their definition includes anything from “fighting back against police” to vandalism, property destruction looting, road-blocking using barricades, burning tires or other materials. In cities where protests did turn violent

    ACLED uses MSM articles to "aggregate the data". GIGO.


    Evidence of that can be seen here:

    https://acleddata.com/2021/05/25/a-y...-blm-movement/

    They're just parroting MSM lies.

    (USA Today, 17 July 2020)(Washington Post, 25 June 2020). (BBC, 2 July 2020). (Washington Post, 1 September 2020). (Youtube, 24 August 2020; Washington Post, 25 August 2020). (LA Times, 27 August 2020). (CNN, 27 August 2020; USA Today, 31 August 2020). (NBC News, 18 May 2021)."

    Garbage In, Garbage Out.

    They're not doing anything scientific or using hard data at all.

    This is a UN smokescreen.

    They're just parroting MSM lies.

    "The push to portray the demonstrations as inherently violent and more dangerous than other social movements became a defining position for the Republican Party and a major talking point in the reelection campaign of then-President Donald Trump. Although the US Office of Special Counsel determined the BLM movement was apolitical in July 2020 (USA Today, 17 July 2020), the BLM movement nevertheless became a highly contentious and partisan issue. In late June 2020, Trump accused a New York-based BLM activist of “Treason, Sedition, Insurrection!” on Twitter (Washington Post, 25 June 2020). By the beginning of July 2020, Trump began referring to the BLM movement as a “symbol of hate” (BBC, 2 July 2020). He later tweeted violent videos inaccurately or misleadingly attributing blame to BLM and intentionally conflating the movement with anarchists and ‘Antifa’ (Washington Post, 1 September 2020). By August 2020, the BLM movement was a primary topic at the Republican National Convention. Mark and Patricia McCloskey, a St. Louis couple who gained both notoriety and felony charges for brandishing weapons at peaceful pro-BLM demonstrators, spoke about “fearing death” during the protest and alleged that the demonstrators “are not satisfied spreading chaos and violence into our cities” (Youtube, 24 August 2020; Washington Post, 25 August 2020). When speaking at the convention two days later, Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani portrayed the BLM movement as a violent menace to the safety of all Americans, especially those in the suburbs, and called the election a choice between law and order and mayhem (LA Times, 27 August 2020). In the months preceding the 2020 presidential election, Trump defended Kyle Rittenhouse, a minor who was illegally armed and killed two pro-BLM demonstrators in Kenosha, Wisconsin (CNN, 27 August 2020; USA Today, 31 August 2020). More recently, in May 2021, Mark McCloskey announced a Senate run in Missouri, campaigning on a platform that promises to defend America against “the mob” that is BLM (NBC News, 18 May 2021)."
    Name the lies and how they are lies, please.

    I'm not reading 20 minutes of their garbage to be able to point out a few to you, because you won't be convinced anyway, so why bother?

    The entire thing is slanted to promote the UN agenda. This is another ACLU.

    I am open. Are you saying that you cannot show that your claim to be correct? Is that it?

    Okay, here's a statement that contradicts itself:

    "The loosely organized anti-fascist movement known as ‘Antifa’ engages in two primary activities relevant to the behavior under review in this report. Local and interstate networks of antifascists organize "

    "loosely organized and "Local and interstate networks of antifascists organize" contradict each other.
    They are highly organized and mobile and use some kind of water-seller (that's a front) vans and U-hauls for transports.
    Anything interstate and local is highly organized, just like ACLED is. Similar structure, even.
    They are 2 sides of the same coin.

    https://acleddata.com/2020/10/21/sta...tias-election/


    Extensively using the SPLC as a reference:

    Within the world of anti-BLM and pro-police organizing, ‘Back the Blue’ (BTB) is a key national movement. BTB was created in defense of the police by ACT for America, a Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC)-designated hate group. ACT for America was founded as an anti-Muslim organization and was highly involved in the ‘March Against Shariah’ rallies in 2017 (Southern Poverty Law Center, 2021). While the origins of BTB as a movement cannot be ignored, BTB has become more decentralized from the ACT for America umbrella, and has come to take on different local characteristics depending on what shape pro-police and anti-BLM activism takes in context. Some local organizers have even come forward to disavow ACT for America, claiming to be fully independent from the designated hate group (Patch, 9 September 2020). Meanwhile, other events have still been explicitly endorsed or organized by ACT for America since the 2017 rallies (Southern Poverty Law Center, 28 August 2018). The raison d’etre for BTB as a movement is to counter BLM-associated activism. It is therefore not surprising that the group has been involved in over 110 counter-demonstrations against BLM-related events across 29 states since the start of last year.

    I don't need any more to realize that these people are straight-up leftist shitbags promoting propaganda and nothing more than, and it's all smoke and mirrors.


    ACLED documents no BLM or ANTIFA violence on April 20-21, 2021

    but uh...

    Left-wing militia activity is not as pronounced, and while the specter of ‘Antifa’ looms large in the public imagination, violent activities associated with this non-centralized movement have been minimal, and are often expressed in cyber actions (like doxxing), and with minimal rioting that typically does not involve threats or harm to individuals.

    The majority of ‘Antifa’ energy is spent towards counterintelligence operations, primarily doxxing right-wing activists and organizing publicly and semi-publicly available information. Antifa-affiliated activists are also rarely armed and do not exhibit a pattern of recruitment, training, and integration into a chain-of-command, like most militia and armed groups.

    In other words, the basement dwelling hackers.

    She certainly advocated for it, you dishonest fucktard. I've proven it to you before.


    "What's True

    Harris expressed support for a nonprofit called the Minnesota Freedom Fund (MFF), which pays criminal bail and immigration bonds, and encouraged her supporters to donate to it during the protests over Floyd's death in the summer of 2020.
    "

    Yet she didn't lay out any of her own bread.
