Manson thought/hoped blacks would be blamed for the savage murders, enraging whites enough to demand “justice” & enraging blacks sick of being wrongly accused. Tensions resulting in a race war.
IIRC that’s the general idea.
That was the gist of the prosecution’s theory.
Point is there are parallels between the Manson Family and BLM stooges.
Both follow a similar misguided ideology that seeks to elevate racial tension and blames wealthy whites for the worlds ills. Push race issues to a critical mass which eliminates the ‘piggies’ and when the dust settles just you are left.
