Hey, I assume no one on Twitter has pointed this out yet, but in your piece, you link to an absolutely 100% fake antifa account that literally any person who has ever been on the internet before could identify as fake. Hope the *squints* New York Times is cool with that.https://twitter.com/bariweiss/status/971508079392116736 …

This is the pinned tweet from the "antifa" account
@bariweiss cites in her piece. So here's the deal, she is either definitely dogwhistling fascist trolls via@nytimes OR she lacks even the most basic digital literacy skills needed to be a journalist in 2018.pic.twitter.com/F6HIbVZE7o

btw this isn't just a
@bariweiss issue! I assume an editor of some kind? at the@nytimes? looked at her piece before at went live and didn't ask any questions about citing an account literally called@OfficialAntifa. That's probably a problem I think!pic.twitter.com/dMf32y9oaA

Several of the other links are just other people retweeting the obviously fake account. This is like the NYT quoting @TheOnion as unapologetic, real newspic.twitter.com/VHwXHc2zvx
