Would you mind providing an example of that?

The disinformation is the notion that police are targeting black people (they're not). The entirety of BLM is built on disinformation. The violence is widespread and easy to find evidence of. There's plenty here, just scroll back to late May:

I was going provide a long list of specific examples but I am very skeptical it would have any effect, I'd rather not waste my time.

What I asked for was an example where BLM is calling for violence. What you've provided was evidence of protests - some violent, some not - in the name of various causes.

What you've now basically claimed, is that none of these protests have any legitimacy - violent or not. What you've explicitly claimed is the notion that police don't disproportionately act violently towards minorities. Why do you say BLM is built on disinformation?

Edit: there is just footage of the Paris protests thrown in there for good measure? Do you even know why people are protesting in Paris right now? Come on, man, I'm willing to look over your sources but don't just throw someone's twitter profile at me, shrug and go: "If you don't believe this then clearly nothing will convince you."

The only disinformation here is you saying "violence is widespread" and that police is not targeting black people. If so, how do you explain these findings?

I wouldn't consider Andy Ngo to be the good source for unbiased information, he's known to selectively edit and splice videos[1] he posts.
