people talk about a diversity of tactics, and that's great and everything, but implied in the term "diversity of tactics" is that people are actually executing on a coherent theory of change rather than just taking everything that isn't nailed down

Protests or riots (uprisings, whatever you might call them)? What are the differential effects?
I certainly believe that the protests were a huge mobilizer for Dems. Dems lacked that grassroots energy in 2024.

So while the vast, vast majority of BLM protests were peaceful, the destructive exceptions enabled political narratives that the Right at least perceives as useful.
And they prob are somewhat correct.
But I have a lot of trouble thinking those riots actually hurt Trump.
