She also cites an excellent article from @crimethinc as evidence of a planned conspiracy, when in fact the article describes the things that happened in Minneapolis and observes what made those actions successful. Nowhere does it claim top-down coordination of events
(Stockman cites a Rutgers white paper as well and I'm gonna have to put on my social-science hat and decipher it. I'll do it soon. Maybe it's great, but suffice it to say I have questions)
Stockman responded to these critiques by claiming the article gives insurrectionary anarchists credit for boosting the cause, which is one way to read it I guess Another way to look at it would be that she's making a case for leftist to be considered domestic terrorists
The idea that a vast and highly-coordinated conspiracy theory by anarchists deliberately introduced insurrectionary tactics into the BLM movement for their own nefarious purposes places everyone in the movement at risk It also undermines the agency or Black people on the ground
Stockman expressed to me a desire to write a follow-up piece that centers the voices of Black anarchists Forgive me if my trust in that ever happening in a responsible manner is gone
Stockman stressed that she's only human and just trying to understand, which, again, is one perspective Another perspective would be that she has an enormous platform and, if she's still trying to understand something, she should maybe not write a whole fucking article about it
I'm hurt and sad and angry and scared about what this means for us, and I hate myself for feeling rude for writing all this. Like, because someone was polite and even nice to me I somehow owe them my silence. That's coming from inside my head, that's my fault for feeling that way
I hate this. It gives me no joy to tweet any of this If Stockman wants to try to undo the harm she's done with a follow-up piece that would be great But I won't be talking to her again, or to anyone from the New York Times: not anytime soon
Spoiler alert... the white paper is NOT great.
It’s very slanted and just...I don’t have the words, here’s a sneak peek tho

Huh- I gave you that sneak peek from a copy I’d downloaded yesterday. Looks like they’ve graciously removed ISIS from the table. Now it’s just “Anarchists/Socialists” (
for that joiner) compared to boogers. Cuz...same

That whitepaper is trash too. It refers to the SRA as an “violent anarcho-socialist militia” lol
