Yeah, for me the problem with the BLM protests is more that they are not actually revolutionary in nature, just another call for "change within the system". They might be rioting, but I don't see them as particularly anti-capitalist in a general sense. It's true that most of the people I've known who were antifa were anti-zionists, anti-capitalists, alter-globalists etc.I miss the days, back when people on earlier incarnations of this forum, actually were in support of "antifa", since they were there taking a fucking beating from cops at the G6/G20 conventions... But now? Not so much.
I mean, nothings changed since then. Same shit happened in the 2019 G20 conventions after all...
EDIT: Not that I'm suggesting that rioting is a particularly good idea, it's just a way in which popular frustration expresses itself. Obviously they are better ways to make a struggle.
