It’s convention to capitalise acronyms . Acronyms are used as convenient abbreviations to save lots of typing. For example CASA is used in place of Civil Aviation Safety Authority, BLM for black lives matter. And so on.
As regards the weird feeling specifically associated with the acronym BLM my sense is this has more to do with the discomfort some folks feel when they are confronted with the idea that people of colour or of differing self identification are not in fact treated equally in line with the founding principles that are said to define America and Americans.

Edited by Shatterday: 8/3/2020 2:20:00 PMNo, I apologise for the confusion, but it's not referring to any organization. Besides ...plenty of people here and there are arguing that this ISN'T about the organization. Just simply Black man, white man, brown man, yellow man. Not in reference to any organization. Edit - again maybe I'm not making myself clear. It has no reference to an acronym.... organization....anything. it's clear as day throughout this entire thread. People always capitalize the term Black. In any and all retrospect. It is the only thing capitalized. I've read online reports, news articles, this very thread.....it's just a simple reference to the color of their skin, but it's capitalized and all other colors referring to color of skin....is not. Hopefully that clears it up.
