EDITED to note: I did not realize when I posted this that it was actually written in October, 2025 about an older NYT op-ed, because the complaint is exactly the same. Fresh off the current NYT article linked here, I happened to see this in the sidebar of the Common Dreams article about Saturday’s (March 28, 2026) protests and assumed it was about the current NYT op-ed. My error. Thanks to @AmidFuror@fedia.io for pointing it out.
For those who haven’t read it, this is the NYT article in question. I should note that the author gets thoroughly schooled in the comments:
A Challenge for ‘No Kings’ Protests, the Third Time Around – by Jeremy W. Peters for the NYT
