Barely any flags and no warnings.
I’m guessing he just manages to piss a few people off in the Pit and isn’t a troll at all?
I recognize the username but he causes no problems I know of.
I think your swipe is way off in fact.
Do we get to know who they were responding to?
I’m confused.
It’s confusing, though. The Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation is the one headed by Cicely Gay and associated with blacklivesmatter.com. It has an EIN of 82-4862489:

There is also a Black Lives Matter Foundation, run by Robert Ray Barnes, with an EIN of 47-4143254:
The latter has tiny income/assets compared to the Global Network Foundation and may just be some kind of scam. I’m not sure the two have anything to do with each other, but the blacklivesmatter.com website seems to be confusing the issue by claiming to be the Black Lives Matter Foundation.
Do you recognize that the username is literally the word “cornfield” with the letters mixed up?
Just saying…
Hence the quotes.
They are basically the face of the movement, simply by being the ones who call it official.
I mean, maybe I’m wrong, and this will sputter out. But it sure seems like it’s catching on enough right now. Unless others in the BLM movement come out against it.

Look up the fucking definition of concern trolling and then read the OP again. Repeat if necessary.
If you’re using a definition of “troll” that doesn’t cover this guy you’re doing reading wrong.
ETA: Never mind, not relevant to this thread. I will move to this thread to not screw up BigT’s thread more.
Wait, you think BigT is a troll!?? I thought you were responding to colinfred.
Now I’m confused too.
¿Por Qué No Los Dos?
Do you actually know who you meant?
I did not! That would be quite a coincidence…if it were.
Did you mean BigT or Colinfred? I’m not the biggest fan of BigT, but he sure as shit is not a troll.
Which poster has a name which is an anagram of “cornfield”?
That said, @Atamasama has already re-homed that complaint in the Trolls R Us Resurrection thread.
Back to the primary topic: I feel deeply suspicious that the subject organization is false-flagging the real BLM movement while attacking the presumptive D party ticket. Smells… like a Republican joe-job to me.

Yeeow, I was confused about who was being called a troll. I thought maybe cornfield (snerk), but it didn’t make sense where it turned up. Calling BigT a troll over that OP? Just weird
On topic: I suspect this has nothing to do with BLM the movement regarding police brutality particularly towards black people. I think it’s someone hijacking the very well known acronym for their own purposes. Whatever those purposes may be.
You didn’t explain what it meant. You only offered a link. Use your words to explain things. Not blind links, please. Links are good for providing further details but by themselves are just a bunch of letters and symbols that don’t answer anything.
Odd, I look at that link and I know that is to an article from the news agency Reuters that is about black lives matter demanding that the dnc host a virtual primary.
Yes, but it’s better to spend thirty seconds complaining that others don’t post the way you’d like than to spend two seconds decoding that “bunch of letters and symbols.”
