Wow, lucky for her she had a few million dollars on hand so she could afford security.

I've seen or heard a few sob stories like this about Cullors' response to criticism.
She choked up as she described having to hire "security" after the negative backlash.
"I spent the last week with security and, yeah, these articles have shown the homes that I live in and that my family lives in," she said, sobbing briefly.
Meanwhile the group she co-founded led a march to the house the Washington County Attorney Pete Orput, the man responsible for former police officer Kimberly Potter being charged with second-degree manslaughter charges in the shooting of Chauvin.
So she thinks it is wrong for pictures of her various houses to be published because she felt intimidated and a need to hire security. I wonder how she would have felt if her house was besieged by protesters. How intimidated and scared would she have felt then. You know. Just what her group did to Orput and his family.

Marxism is, at the end of the day, nothing more than the belief that you have the right to the fruit of someone else's labor. It just so happens that those in power are more able to acquire that fruit. Of course they keep the "little people" on the hook by promising equal outcomes while delivering inequality.
Equally miserable that is.

I guess it is true. Some animals are more equal than others.

That's what brought her to where she is.

Interesting as well, all of her homes are in rich white neighborhoods.....
But hey, anyone here who may have donated to BLM's cause the last few years, at least now you know where you're money has been going.

IOW, her family will continue to be provided for after she's gone. Folks typically call that an inheritance. You know, something that Marx and his followers loathed and ranted against wanting to see it abolished or severely limited.

The temptation is always to expose them to the public as massive hypocrites and hopefully shame them into disappearing, or that their followers will toss them aside, but neither usually happens. People enjoy being wealthy, so they justify their actions and you cannot shame them. And their followers too often buy the excuses.
