Last week a controversial anarchist Twitter personality was announced to have died in a knife attack. In actuality she never lived. She was the product of a serial catfisher who’s previously been run offline for sexting while posing as an anarchist woman. (This is also the first story I’ve written that emerged from the Mastodon community!) https://www.thedailybeast.com/serial-catfisher-posed-as-anarchist-sex-worker-to-tweet-about-15-year-olds
Serial Catfisher Posed as Anarchist Sex Worker to Tweet About 15-Year-Olds

Anarqxista Goldman was controversial in “life,” tweeting about the supposed lustiness of underage girls. Her supposed death revealed her to be a hoax by a 54-year-old man.

@KELLYWEILL That was quite a day. I went from believing a mutual I liked had been brutally murdered to finding out that mutual didn't actually exist. As upset as I was, I can only imagine how upset were the people that had any sort of sexual relationship with "Anarqxista". Apparently there were quite a few.
@KELLYWEILL Excellent article, by the way!
@RuralAnarchy Thank you! And yeah, I can only imagine how people who had closer relationships with “her” feel
