How about some Conservative Attorneys get together and sue BLM on behalf of business owners, claiming they are liable at least in part for the damage for their rhetoric and apologetics?
Even if there's no chance of winning, do it anyway just to make them spend the money to fight it.
EXACTLY!!! FUCKING EXACTLY! The Repubs need to start using lawyers the same way the left does. The left does it because they keep getting away with it. Until the left starts suffering legal losses they'll keep their stupid shit up and they have done SO much damage to our country all to act like they're out for justice when all they're out for is money!
The Leftists made huge inroads by legal bullying. Almost all major Leftist accomplishments came by overwhelming the legal system and targets with lawsuits.
I want both, but the old "don't bother with lawsuits" argument no longer holds ice with me, I say imitate the enemy's successful tactics against the enemy.
This one was successful. It was Lawfare by a small group of Conservatives who fought a Georgia "Diversity" School all the way to SCOTUS, forcing Social Justice and Woke Orgs to spend big money fighting it all the way to the top.
It was about a College Campus arguing that, even in a "Free Speech Zone" anything that might upset people was "Fighting Words" and thus could be prohibited - including sharing the Gospel.
How did Abortion get legalized? Gay Marriage? How are Christian Bakers treated?
The Left sues over everything, and once they win a breakthrough, the exploit it to the full and change the whole system.
For the past few decades, the Conservative Movement has shied away from Lawfare, and by abandoning the field, leaves the Left to continue waging Lawfare up and down the country on every issue.
It's about making them worry about being in the same room with us, rather than us always reacting to them - siezing or at least contesting the initiative. Every dollar they need to spend defending, is a dollar they can't use to try to advance their baloney.

That's what the Left does with Lawfare.

Just as a practical matter, would you rather:
spend $10M on lawsuits with BLM, when you don't get that money back even if you win
spend $10M backing MAGA candidates for Congress or state/local office
Right now, they unfortunately have deeper pockets, so money can't be spent frivolously.
I want to win.

Yeah, just like all those election fraud lawsuits were successful. If there's a winning strategy, it doesn't involve the legal system.

To add, we can start filing lawsuits today and not wait until 2022/2024.
