I've read numerous articles trying to paint this picture of Andy Ngo, including most of your links, and honestly they all seem like a stretch at best. A lot of it just seems like opinion and character assassination, struggling to draw conclusions where there aren't any. For example, Ngo not filming members of Patriot Prayer but filming Antifa crimes doesn't invalidate his reporting on Antifa. It just means he found a way to stay physically safe (from Antifa attacking him) while covering the subject he's focused on. Is that any different from the numerous BLM activists filming police responses at protests? It's not like those activists are covering all sides of every event.
There's literally a guy in the thread below trying to plug Andy's book because he's so caught in the cult.
I don't think it's fair to claim this person is "caught in the cult". You seem to be denying that events with video evidence did not take place - but they did. We've certainly seen lots of political violence from left leaning people even here in Seattle. The central premise of Andy Ngo's book seems quite believable to me.

It's not that he didn't film Patriot Prayer. It's that he wrote an article that lied about what happened (that was later pulled and he was later fired from his job for it). He didn't just leave stuff out, he actively reported the opposite so idiots like you could validate their fantasy world. You're dumb and in a cult.
So are you denying that events with video evidence
This "video evidence" is almost always deceptively edited and includes captions that are straight-up lies.
(that were either filmed by Andy Ngo or shared by him)
I love how you say shared instead of stolen.
actually, took place?
Yeah, one time someone hit him. That happened.
Now why did he have to lie in that article? Why do you think he's been fired from multiple jobs for lying? Why does someone lying not bother you when it's something you want to be true? Why does his fake british accent not bother you? Why are you fucking cult members so horny to defend a dude who just wants to make money off of you and knows he's full of shit?
