Funny how that article doesn't actually show any of Brooks posts, this one does check it out. https://national-justice.com/waukesha-alleged-attacker-convicted-pedophile-repeat-felon-and-self-described-black-terrorist-who

It makes a sorry excuse for not showing the posts, in that his accounts were taken offline when clearly his posts have been making rounds. Although if they have, that isn't enough to demonstrate that he was an affiliated BLM activist.

The guy literally made a BLM watermelon. If that isn't BLM affiliated I don't know what it. His affiliations are not what I wanted to highlight however, it is his clear views on White people that is the takeaway here.

What the claim is now is that law enforcement agencies have not spoken on calling it an act of terror, and that Brooks was not directly affiliated with any BLM/black nationalist group.

if one supports BLM on social media they are directly affiliated

that's all it really is, a social media thing, but that can be dangerous as they organize their looting thru social media

I just don't know why they are playing word games then and getting so famous on Twitter for it.

Sad that it got so much praise on Twitter.

Although I'm still left with a question; this article points out how one of his posts about a right-wing cop running people over was miscontextualized, which is one of the most prominent points they make to prove Ngo and others are wrong about Waukesha. What do we make of this? I don't fully get this, but I am assuming that it was just another manifestation of strong BLM support and that he might have been influenced regardless.

https://www.thedailybeast.com/how-big-time-right-wing-trolls-andy-ngo-and-tim-pool-tied-waukesha-killings-to-black-lives-matter Speaking of this kind of article.

Ngo also included another suggestion that bears little resemblance to reality. “He also has a post about how to get away with running people over on the street,” he tweeted. This is, at best, inflammatory and misleading. Yes, in 2016, Brooks shared a post from an ex-Minneapolis sargeant who’d encouraged citizens to run over BLM protesters, saying they could get off scot-free by calling 911 and claiming BLM had a “propensity towards violence.” Anyone with a cursory knowledge of the story would easily realize Brooks was condemning the cop. Ngo left all of that information out. Instead, in another tweet in the thread, he stripped away the context to quote Brooks saying: "Run them over. Keep traffic flowing & don't slow down for any of these idiots.” In doing so, Ngo implies it was Brooks who was providing a how-to guide for using a car as a weapon and not the ex-Minneapolis cop.
