      normally rightwing grift would be where the $$ is, but BLM was such a huge social phenomenon that was at the top of the news for months. Corporations, Sports Teams and other wealthy entities had to find an easy way to show that they "cared" about injustice so they just poured millions into the most toothless lib BLM org.
