They're conducting some sleight of hand here. There was indeed a bit of a violent crime spike post-George Floyd in the US.
But... there was also an unprecedented global pandemic and resulting economic shutdown, and the same crime spike happened in other countries that didn't have a BLM movement to speak of.
It's not even sleight of hand, it's just lying by omission.
"Our boat sank because you chose to go left instead of right" while not even mentioning the giant hole that opened up in the boat isn't sleight of hand.
