    Basically, BLM had the attitude of “if you’re not with us, you’re a racist.” And that was just way too extreme. Many people, including Latinos, just didn’t care, or didn’t want to get involved. When BLM started looting and burning down things in their neighborhoods, they became more angry and didn’t care even more. However, they were lumped together with everyone else as “racists” or “bigots” if they didn’t want to march hand in hand with blacks.
