黒人差別の幻想を作りだす裏側。「白人による黒人差別」は商売になる。何度も書いているが、下の記事が具体例。商売だから自分のポケットに入れ腹を肥やす悪党もいる。超金持ちの映画俳優、スポーツ、音楽はもとより、経済・商業界から大型寄付金が望める。白人だったら免罪符とし、黒人だったら賛同助成金として。まるで何か正義の味方になったような気分で寄付金をお願いできる。メディアが支えてくれているから、言葉に説得力がもてる。メディアの長い世論操作によって、大衆からからも寄付金が期待できるのである。その逆はどうか。つまり黒人差別がないとなれば、どうやってそんな大型寄付金をもぎ取れるか。そう考えると、こんな甘い汁はないことに気付くだろう。

BLM Activists Are Funneling Donations Back to Their Own Companies, Documents Show
Shaun King's PAC gave $460,000 to consulting companies registered to PAC leaders
Joe Schoffstall - JUNE 30, 2020 11:50 AM
The left-wing activist and former Bernie Sanders surrogate Shaun King is among the most visible faces of the Black Lives Matter movement. The former Daily Kos blogger is also one of its prominent fundraisers: In 2017, King founded a political action committee—the Real Justice PAC—with an eye toward driving criminal-justice reform across the country using the same mass mobilization techniques employed by the Sanders campaign.
But over the past 15 months, the Real Justice PAC, staffed by a number of left-wing activists, has funneled a quarter of the money it has brought in back to companies linked to PAC leaders.
Since January of 2019, the PAC has cut dozens of checks totaling more than $460,000 to three political consultancy firms linked to PAC employees. The PAC's data strategist, Jin Ding, and its treasurer, Becky Bond, manage two of them: Social Practice LLC and Bernal Alto LLC. The third—Middle Seat Consulting—was cofounded by one of the PAC's original leaders, Hector Sigala.
"There are legal and ethical ways to have people in leadership positions at an organization also serve as vendors to the same organization," Scott Walter, president of the Capital Research Center, a money-in-politics watchdog, told the Washington Free Beacon. "But these relationships properly raise questions, especially for a group whose leaders include someone like Shaun King, who has repeatedly been accused of enriching himself improperly."
"For 501(c)(3) charities, the IRS actually prohibits what’s called ‘private inurement' or excessive benefit to an individual from the organization’s coffers," Walter said. "Real Justice PAC isn’t a nonprofit overseen by the IRS but a PAC overseen by the Federal Election Commission, which so far as I know doesn’t have such a strict regulation. Still, groups like Real Justice that routinely criticize their opponents for things like ‘dark money' influence—should be prepared to defend practices that let leaders write checks to their own for-profit consultancies."
