      You know the saying "When all you have is a hammer, all you see are nails?" All Mensch has is a nail, so she sees hammers everywhere.

      This narrative damages Black Lives Matter and could be widened to damage other progressive movements and causes.

      You know how anti-drug programs that say "Marijuana is a gateway to cocaine and heroin and smoking once can get you addicted!" backfire?

      So for everybody out there for whom "Russia did Black Lives Matter!" or "Russia did Ferguson!" is not just wrong but deeply hurtful...

          I don't think this is deliberate disinfo on Louise Mensch's part. But it's beyond a bad take, and its impact will be the same as disinfo.
