I believe Marxism is a failed ideology, but so is unrestrained capitalism.
I believe abortion is wrong but I’d like to have that conversation with you over coffee face to face respectfully.
But I don’t have to support either Marxism or abortion to simply say:
black lives matter
and need our attention right now with real institutional change

To the government, no lives matter. Power cares about power. Black Americans are not powerful. White Americans are not powerful.
The maw eats both.
What is the goal? Social conformity? If I get three people to chant Black lives matter after I chant it, do I get more "awareness" the magical property the left claims will solve problems? What about 400 people chanting it with me? At which point does the chant become a boundary marker in my mind Satan uses to justify out-grouping the other. To de-person him for his thoughts and beliefs. To dehumanize him in the name of "he is not humane enough" or "he is not caring enough"? What about 4,000? Does it become a religious mindset with it's own zeal for the idol of the group. An ancient tribal chant to bind the warriors together as one before they attack the battle line?
Would the Viking raiders recognize this anthropological phenomenon as something familiar? My guess is they would.
