A response to a New York Times article that repeated conspiracy theories about anarchists manipulating the Black Lives Matter movement. This article was originally published by Crimethinc.
Kinda late to comment but holy shit this article is bad. They cite Andre Taylor in Seattle, a guy who is working directly for our centrist lib mayor that is deeply opposed to meaningful reform, as some guy who was sidelined because of some random white anarchist. Like holy shit, it's honestly disgusting that anyone who considers themselves remotely leftist would ever write a biline for the nytimes as this paper seriously needs to lose its legitimacy.
Literally the most prominent black activist in the entire city, and former candidate for mayor, has called out this dude multiple times as basically just being cointelpro.
