Everytime I hear about BLM these days, they are some bigots punchline or they are doing some absolutely RANDOM shyt that changes nothing butpisses everyone off. What is the point? Seriously? What is their point? That goes for the American version and the copycat in Canada.

Black Lives Matter Toronto claims its trans, queer members have received hate mail since Pride protest
An activist group that stalled Canada's largest Pride parade to demand more rights for racialized communities says it's being flooded with hate mail, some of it sent by members of the LGBT community.
Black Lives Matter Toronto says the vitriol demonstrates the racism it is trying to combat with its actions.
The group — a Canadian chapter of the larger U.S. movement active in Toronto since late 2014 — caused a stir on Sunday when some of its members who were marching in the city's Pride parade staged a sit-in — bringing the event to a halt for about half an hour.
"It's, 'You could never be a part of our community, you savage monkey,' that kind of thing," she said.
