Not generally. They absolutely don’t support the protest. If I had a dollar for every lib friend or person I’ve seen online that was like “I don’t think the police are right but the blm are hurting their own community! The property owners don’t deserve this to happen”
They just want to appropriate their iconography for social media, that’s not support
Only as long as it is peaceful and ineffective. Any real radical protesting involving anything other than sitting on the ground and chanting results in tutting and eyerolling.
In the early days when the BLM protests were full of liberals a whole bunch of comrades were literally being grabbed by dumbass liberals and handed over to the cops too. It was vile and nasty. They tried to coopt and deradicalise it really hard.
Libs are ok on BLM
