Lots of people here predict that on the 6th, a fight will break out in DC between patriots and Black Lives Matter... but is that true? The paid Soros activists will show up to fight no matter what, but can we find common ground with at least some BLM members? Our number one grievance is with the government, as is theirs.

Back when Charlottesville happened, Donald Trump said there are fine people on both sides. What Trump said about "both sides" applies by definition not just to us, but to our political opponents.

There are some people who associate with BLM who we can work with--and who we have in the past. A minority of BLM, true, but here's a few examples

From today: BLM and Stop The Steal both protest at Mitch McConnell's house, find common ground. https://twitter.com/KarlAuer18/status/1345495379085819905

January 2020: Black Lives Matter 575 joins pro-2A rally in Richmond https://richmond.com/news/local/update-richmond-woman-charged-with-wearing-mask-in-public-following-gun-rights-rally/article_af43b67e-def2-5ee1-92db-709d0965655f.html

September 2017: New York BLM Activists Invited on Pro-Trump Stage https://www.wxyz.com/news/video-black-lives-matter-activists-invited-on-pro-trump-stage

Speaking from personal experience, I spent a lot of time on Twitter debating with BLM folks this summer, and most of them were fairly reasonable and willing to listen. Some of them even told me that I changed their view on conservative people, that until they talked to me, they thought conservatives were unwilling to have a conversation.

BLM is (somewhat) of a leaderless movement. Tens if not hundreds of thousands of people have participated in various BLM actions over the years. Of those thousands of people, you have rioters who came out after dark to burn, loot, and murder. You have violent people, you have people funded by Soros as paid agitators, but then you also have just regular people and groups who we disagree with but who are nonviolent.

It's the latter group who showed up at McConnell's house today, and in the other two examples. But cooperation like that only happened because our sides and leaders had a dialogue beforehand and determined that it was in both groups' best interest, at least at the time, to temporarily put our differences aside to oppose our worst enemy: the government.

I'm not a leader of anything, but I would encourage some sort of dialogue between us and BLM before the 6th. Maybe it comes to nothing, maybe there will be violence no matter what but I think it's worth a try.
