@Benzin , I think you should re-read my post and try and see that it was a neutral post looking at it from both sides. The problem that I have with the BLM movement, either we have to agree with them on everything or if we don't then we are labelled racist. I don't like to succumb to dictatorship.
The fact that I've been called a white privilege on this forum because of the colour of my skin is like
"the pot calling the kettle black" 
Oh I understood it was a fairly balanced piece, but at the same time I feel some of the issues we see today are you result of trying to "appease" to having a balanced view point. Plus you're having a reasoned discussion so I did pick on you a little bit (but some of the things you said needed to have an argument against, particularly the "only old people are racist" one).
I believe that the appeasement of balanced views in some cases has leaded to the rise of anti-vax and conspiracy theories. Which also isn't helped by the way in which social media algorithms push these things towards a person (you watch one thing on YouTube then all of a sudden your recommendations list is full of that topic, its insanity).
What parts of BLM do people disagree with? Best list of their targets I could find was on here (
https://blacklivesmatter.uk/about-us/what-we-are-doing) though with the main things being pushed being things like "defund the police", which wouldn't work in the same way as it would in America, but is an easy attack for right wing papers to push their own propaganda.
In terms of the way the protests ended, it often feels like certain kinds cannot really win. Taking the knee in football has been called "gesture politics" by the government (who then say how appalled they were that these players were then racially abused), but when the protests last year went into overdrive and resulted in a statue being thrown into a river they're told they should protest peacefully. Let's be honest history tells us that no cause that was fought for ever ended peacefully.
Not sure who's called you on having white privilege (unless you mean my mention of it being a thing that exists?), so bit confused on your point on it. Until racial equality becomes a thing there will always be privilege for a certain few. Half of privilege these days is where you were born and who birthed you.
A good public example of this is the complete lack of action towards Grenfell Tower and similar buildings still having that particular cladding on them. Another point to be considered is the police response to the BLM marches last year, the women's march earlier this year and then their response to the football "celebrations".
Unfortunately privilege is so ingrained in life. But when the response of the Astrazeneca blood clots was such even though the likelihood of them is higher in the pill for women its obvious to a degree that things sometimes only matter when a particular group are affected. The lack of facilities to those who do suffer (from whatever it is, inequality, poverty, mental health or disabilities) is completely shocking when you actually scratch into it all.
