Gotta love a Democratic Minnesota Governor and Democratic Minneapolis Mayor borrowing outside "agitator" rhetoric of southern segregationists to distort what's going on in Minneapolis right now
Look back to what segregationist Governors and politicians said during the 1960s civil rights protests....identical language. Facts are yes, there are always outside "agitators" from out of city that take part of protests. But it is a distraction/distortion politicians & media

use to try and change the rest of society's focus and turn on the protesters/distract from THE REASON people are protesting (the racist system). It's not an either or--yes, there are always outside instigators....but that should not be a dominant narrative

No, it's not a distraction. It's the truth. This is what happens to prolonged protests/riots. The opposition shows up incognito to undermine the cause and the aggitators that just want to fuck shit up with no regard to the cause whatsoever show up as well.

This is what protesters are going to have to reckon with if they don't want to see public opinion (don't fool yourself. It matters) slip away and increasingly turn against them.
