Your views are unrealistically ideal about these groups (BLM, feminism, etc). You disregard the actual behavior of people in these groups, essentially committing a no true scotsman fallacy.

A mob of people marching and chanting in the name of BLM demand dead cops and burn down their neighboring businesses because a criminal (in a specific ethnic group) committed a crime and suffered the consequences. Hmm.. maybe that was some anomaly or a rogue element? Oh, wait, nope. It keeps happening repeatedly over and over...

"But none of that has anything to do with the stuff BLM is fighting."

You have to judge people on their actions, not the abstract ideal they hide behind.
