He cites a poll showing that support for BLM has dropped to about 30%. That's a massive 20 point swing in 2 years. Of course the activists will continue their crusade. The question is: who is still listening?
- mikkergp 4y agoA single organization does not a movement make. DEI was here long before BLM and will be here long after. Activists movements have always had infighting, surviving that is part of what makes them so resilient.
- snoot 4y agoBLM was the most prominent success, but turned out to be self-defeating. The arguments are bankrupt and the counterargument are simply winning now. There is no going back or ‘fighting harder’ when your position no longer has currency.
- chitowneats 4y agoExactly. They'll retain a sort of zombified power and influence in organizations that they successfully captured over the last decade. But even that will slowly fade as well. You are right. They lost the debate.
