the left saw BLM as a defender of black lives after all it's in their name. lol and they saw what the news wanted them to see. Not things like George Floyd who was a drug addict thug. They aren't being told most people want cops even in the black community. and blacks kill blacks more than whites do. yes there are some bad cops and they should be charged but not most. They want us to hate cops too. They also weren't told that BLM was founded by Marxists still with that radicalized thinking. they made millions on others ignorance including various liberal owned businesses. They also know and see it all the time how easily brainwashed people especially on the left can become. it's still the same thing today.
