"tell me Mrs. P, do you actually know a single black person? "
As a matter of fact, many conservative-leaning blacks (yes, there are those!) and religious blacks oppose BLM. I personally know many blacks, who strongly oppose BLM - they work on Wall St. and like being protected by police. Then there are black Jews (and being Jewish doesn't make them less black). Yes, we have those too in NY/NJ (some are orthodox Jews). So please don't generalize that all blacks are the same (that would be very racist of you). There are different kinds of blacks and they don't all have the same priorities.
"i am following BLM-occupy at my alma mamma, closely - well, it is featured in every issue of my alum magazine, it did not make national news, interestingly. do you know what is my alma mater? who studies there? Mrs. P, this is american creme-de-la-creme, super-elite, kids in the top half-percent of academic/social achievement... and that includes black kids. " I have no idea where you went to school. It sounds impressive - congratulations.
""stand by your man" was invented by a woman, in case you forgot. " Not sure what you are trying to say here. My husband doesn't sleep around with interns and doesn't get accused of raping a whole bunch of women. If he did, I wouldn't be standing by him. The fact that Hillary does, significantly reduces her in the eyes of many feminists (not to mention sexual harassment and rape victims).
