Who is LakotaMan, the user behind one of the most popular Native American accounts on X?

John Martin, aka Lakotaman, has over 515,000 followers on X, but he is infamous among Native and Indigenous communities.

Lakota Man is what happens when a discounted superhero masquerades as an indigenous guru to appease non-natives or some stupid shit.

Thank you for listening to my TEDtalk and PSA on the matter.

Please stop giving your well meaning money uncritically to people on the internet you don’t know anything about and who avoid questioning. I’ve seen this also going back to the 2020 uprising, people grifting cash ongoing STILL. This destroys trust and hurts people that really need funds and assistance. #MutualAid #acab #lakotaman
