The guy in the above photo actually said that. This is one reason to why conservatives argue that BLM’s ultimate objective is a communist state. (News Share)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is according to a report released by Defense One. This contractor looked at searches conducted, from military bases, to identify extremism “red flags”. This is a part of the Defense Department’s initiative to “remove extremism” from its ranks. This contractor is a British one; its founder is associated with the Obama Foundation.<\/p>\n

From Fox News:<\/span><\/p>\n

For “the truth about black lives matter,” the group said: “This search suggests that the BLM movement has nefarious motives, and is a disinformation narrative perpetuated by white supremacist groups to weaponize anti-BLM sentiment.”<\/p>\n

It adds: “While the search phrase appears innocuous, several books include it in their title and allege that the BLM movement is ‘joined with Antifa burning and looting.’ These sources echo white supremacist disinformation narratives alleging that BLM protesters are trying to ‘overthrow the republic’ and ‘harm American citizens in a Marxist coup,’ as a means of delegitimizing it. Multiple videos on YouTube also promote these narratives–in particular the criminalization of BLM–using the identical phrase.”<\/p>\n

Moonshot did not respond to Fox News’ request for comment. Neither did the Defense Department.<\/p>\n

It’s unclear why the Pentagon chose a U.K.-based company for monitoring purported U.S. extremism. The Center for Security Policy raised concerns about the company in an article last month in which it highlighted how Moonshot CEO Vidhya Ramalingam served as a leader in the Obama Foundation’s Europe program.<\/p>\n

She also participated in a panel hosted by the highly controversial Southern Poverty Law Center and has ties to other left-leaning organizations. As the Center for Security Policy notes, she authored a paper that acknowledged financial support from Open Society Foundation, the group founded by liberal billionaire George Soros.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
