The protests against police violence in Portland have continued every night since George Floyd was murdered. There has been a lot of attention at times and crowds swelled to the thousands. There is no organized money behind this, especially now that the groups are much smaller (and the police brutality and intimidation has risen to new levels).[1]
Pretty sure the ruling class would prefer for these protests to go away as quickly and quietly as possible.

- john_moscow 6y ago> There is no organized money behind this May I humbly ask where did all the millions donated to BLM go?
- SenoraRaton 6y agoLets just take Amazon for example. They donated to organizations(ACLU/NAACP etc). Likely non profits that support the POC communities. No one is paying protesters to be in the streets.
- john-shaffer 6y agoI don't think he's talking about Amazon's donations, but BLM itself. There is a big DONATE button on blacklivesmatter.com, and they take in millions in donations. No one knows how it is spent.
