We Are Trained Marxists: BLM, GOP AD
Washington Times ^ | June 25, 2020 | Valerie Richardson

Posted on 06/27/2020 12:50:17 PM PDT by Marchmain

A 2015 video in which Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors describes herself and co-founder Alicia Garza as “trained Marxists” is making an appearance in a GOP campaign ad.

The Republican National Committee video, “This isn’t about justice, it’s about destroying America,” features scenes of recent rioting, fires and mayhem, but begins with a clip of Ms. Cullors.

“We actually do have an ideological frame,” says Ms. Cullors. “We are trained Marxists.”

The comment comes from a 2015 interview by Real News Network host Jared Ball with Ms. Cullors, who founded Black Lives Matter with Ms. Garza and Opal Tometi in 2013 after the shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin by a neighborhood watch coordinator in Sanford, Florida.

Ms. Cullors’ entire comment was: “We actually do have an ideological frame. Myself and Alicia in particular are trained organizers. We are trained Marxists. We are super-versed on sort of ideological theories.”

The one-minute RNC video released Wednesday says in a caption, “The ‘trained Marxists’ are on a violent rampage.”

The Washington Times has reached out to Ms. Cullors for comment.

The “Black Lives Matter” slogan has been painted on major city streets since protests broke out in response to the May 25 death of George Floyd in Minneapolis police custody.

While the “Black Lives Matter” rallying cry has been adopted as a statement against racial injustice, the movement itself has been criticized for extreme left-wing stances, including opposition to capitalism, defunding the police, and a guaranteed minimum income and free college for Black people.

“The Russian Origins of Black Neo-Marxism”

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2020/06/the_russian_origins_of_black_neomarxism.html

I wonder how well Obama and/or pierre delicto knew professor Noel Ignatiev of Harvard fame?

From the article:

“....Research into the work of this former Harvard professor finally answered the question of why BLM proponents are so negative about the perfectly rational slogan “All Lives Matter.” The fact is that the “black” in the interpretation of Ignatiev is a revolutionary Marxist. All those who do not agree with the Left ideology should, according to Ignatiev, be eliminated.....”

Washington has been invaded by George Soros’ army of helmeted, masked, armored thugs terrorizing the government’s memorials and statues. It is a deliberate Soros armed attack to bring down his hated enemy, the US.

Soros can be arrested for waging war against the United States.

Accusing them of being Marxists won’t have any effect on the brainwashed Gen Z white girls, but it might wake up some of the dumb Boomers who think they are supporting MLK Volume II.

I’d guess the RNC and President Trump are about one month behind the times.

His ex order condemning the tearing down of statues, etc. should have been issued no later than two days after this desecration started.

LET’S GO!

Agreed. They should hammer it in, and others like it, day and night.

Blame the massive resurgence of the wuflu on the No Lives Matters protesters.
Everything was going well until those idiots started strutting around like Typhoid Mary’s.

Trained Marxists until they realize they are playing make believe army when confronted with an armed American citizenry. When they start entering residential neighborhoods thats when they will soil their shorts. The police are restrained the public isnt.

“Soros can be arrested for waging war against the United States.”


Prolly not going to happen with an FBI Director who thinks white supremacy is at the top of domestic threats and he is “aggressively pursuing it.”

He dispatched 15 agents down to Talladega on a wild noose chase. Wonder how many are going after whoever sent the pallets of bricks in to the riots?
