The movement which had support from all over the world took an ugly turn when the protesters became rioters.

In this era of the internet and social media, hiding such atrocious crimes was impossible. Soon, the internet was boiling with viral videos of protestors burning properties and stealing. Within days, the judgement of the supporters from the foreign nations started faltering.

The countless pieces of evidence in the form of videos and photos showed the wrongdoings of the crowd came out in the following weeks. This was criticized by even the undeveloped nations. The second biggest reason for losing support for BLM was these videos.

To make things worse, many of the people who lost their properties were people of colour.

The people who were against the movement used it as a perfect weapon. In a few weeks, the protestors were tagged as 'looters' or 'rioters'.
