      That’s fucking ridiculous. BLM is for everyone. Federal land is for everyone. My tax dollars pay for it. Not for some livestock conglomerate or land developer to profit from the greedy little shits.

        “Bureau of Land Management” for anyone who incorrectly reads this as ‘Black Lives Matter’.

        But, yes, BLM is for everyone.
