The initial reason for the first BLM rally was a lie. This was well known and well documented early on, yet the BLM movement kept repeating it.

Yeah. BLM keeps picking the wrong hill to die on with respect to the specific examples of police brutality they try and protest but the core message of "police need to stop being so trigger happy" is hard to disagree with.

The article does seem to cite quite a few third-party sources (and some first/second-party ones like WaPo). Are you suggesting those sources are automatically invalid because of the person citing them?
