Christopher Rufo takes a look at what got us to this point.
I think the tipping point was the Occupy Wall St movement. This terrified TF out of the powers that be, and got every media outlet as well as big tech to start promoting BLM as a distraction. The rest as they say is history. Occupy Wall St lost momentum just when they were close to getting shit done. The left was turned away from Wall St and weaponized against the people using divide and conquer tactics.
