Important to note that this is the BLM Global Network Foundation (BLMGNF), which is not the same as the grassroots, decentralized BLM movement that happened nationally.

If I recall correctly, BLMGNF was formed by a couple folks in Los Angeles to give a formal organization the authority and organizational weight of what the BLM movement was about. The BLM movement, being decentralized and leaderless at the national level, mostly rejected BLMGNF speaking for them and being recognized as the organization of the movement, but BLMGNF moved forward with claiming national leadership regardless.

If they're not 'the real blm' then where is the funding from? I don't heard of donators complaining to have been defrauded, only claims that it's racist to criticize blm for actions by the organization with all the money..

Indeed. Every single time there's some alleged BLM scandal (and there seems to be many), there is someone who assures us that it's not the "real" BLM, but the "national organization"/"local organization"/"someone using the BLM name". It's "fake" BLMs all the way down, seemingly.

Plausible deniability all the way around, at least for scandals like spending millions on homes.

For any good press, plenty of people stepping forward for credit.
