    garbage in, garbage out. you can’t just go by mentions of a single string. you need to incorporate the context in which it is used, and also use more sources than the NYT.

    I don’t understand how you can talk about race without talking about class. The claim that the left only cares about racism is explicitly racist and class reductionist. The NYT has got nothing to do with it. If these political spectrum discourses have any meaning or substance at all, the NYT is clearly right wing.

      If anything, the focus of the NYT was to divide people on the matters of race in response to the protests. I think it’s interesting to correlate this with the Wall Street protests.
