Am I cynical or am I concerned?
It's not "diversity" when people are hiding their real platforms, and posing as unified while duping their followers, herding them like sheep.
Once again... who the hell are M27 ?
Why is it negative to question this? I think it's a lot more negative to go on message boards and defend their actions without even knowing. You at least seem like you have a handle on who's who in the anarchy world.... but there are a lot of people reading Indymedia that don't seem to give a shit. You mentioned being involved in Indymedia. Why are they publicizing actions by groups in guises that only vaguely represent themselves or some form of a public platform? Why are Indymedia allowing other groups to misrepresent their message and co-opt their service? I've never seen them publish up to the minute reports for White militia marches. They do curate their content on some level. I'll say it again - Not in Our name features "names" that do obviously support some violence in the Middle East if it fits within their personal agendas, but that's a contradiction to their seemingly innocent Statement of purpose. It's not innocent at all, It's manipulative. It's sick, and it's corrupt.
Admonishing you by your associations simply because you did it for a good cause doesn't cut it. Sometimes standing on the side lines is the most responsible thing to do.
