About 1/2 of my relatives did although I don't think there's an official directive to wear them. They also stand until the announcements are over and they are told, "You may be seated."

Zoom seating in your home for the online convention followed by tons of Instagram "#bestlifeever" pics. Never underestimate this cult's ability to become more delusional and cultish.

So I've been thinking about the OP's question while researching the group.
I believe that BLM is really wanting to usher in “Black Trans Lives Matter”. However, they are (or were) not politically connected enough to come out and banner that slogan.
The “black community” is not a monolithic group. It is comprised of conservative, church-going people. These people are traditionally anti-gay, anti-trans, and are often downright homophobic. They are active and retired military, college educated, and anti-abortion. They are NAACP, SCLC card-carrying people. In addition to urbanites and single mothers on welfare, they include middle and upper middle class taxpayers who desire to raise their children in two-parent families.
BLM wants to co-opt all of these black citizens and the clout that comes with all they’ve worked for. They are anti-male and anti-father. They stand opposed to the traditional nuclear family structure and are anti-establishment. The confusing BLM agenda is also the agenda of the extreme left. I believe the extreme left’s agenda is damaging to the fabric of modern society.
Just as the voices of non-racist whites are drowned, so, too, are the voices and contributions of productive “black” members of American society. I believe BLM has cloaked their “BLACK LIVES MATTER” chant under the guise of fighting racism against blacks. Their mission goes way beyond that noble sounding claim. The confusion is intentional and meant to disrupt (by their own admission). They are brainwashing the gullible and non-thinker. So, no, I do not agree with BLM’s philosophy.
Here is the link to their website and mission statements: https://blacklivesmatter.com/what-we-believe/

Fading out during the pandemic?
by Kingdavid41 ingiven the current world situation with the covid-19 pandemic and so many social distancing, staying at home and self quarantining.
all meetings are currently being held on zoom assemblies and conventions are viewed via the website .
this is the perfect time to fade-out and you probably won’t even be noticed!

I think it will still depend on how vigilant your congregation is as to whether you'd be noticed. I think it's a great time to take the pressure off of yourself while developing an exit strategy. Log into the zoom meetings with the audio only. Catch Covid and be unavailable for communication. Lose internet and phone service because of job instability.
My JW relatives are tripping over themselves to get us going again...this is REALLY the end!

Thank you for explaining how you'd interpret the stats, Simon.
I'll assume the rest of the "you" statements in your post aren't meant for me.

"No, but how you interpret them matter" "It's just math tricks to mislead, not an attempt to have a real conversation."
Simon, how do you interpret the stats that Quetzal cited?

@millie210, Very few that I've talked with have made the obvious connection. The media won't cover it much because Covid fear mongering was righteous and just; executed to keep the public safe.
