Notes
Matt “Spek” Watson, aka “Bitter Barista”, is allegedly a member of Emerald City Antifa who posted on the group's FB page. He posted images from the CHAZ zone and took his infant to at least one protest. He participated in the massive July 25th riot near Cal Anderson Park and encouraged people to drop by say hello. Watson appears to have participated in some sort of anti-Trump protest in late 2020 and was offended when a passerby in a truck used the “N” word. In 2021, someone posted flyers in his neighborhood accusing him of child molestation and he encouraged his social media followers to remove them. However, there does not appear to be any evidence to substantiate the claims of molestation. He was involved in a campaign to smear Orthodox Jewish City Council candidate Ari Hoffman in 2019. Ironically, people on the alt-Right message board 8Chan participated in harassment of Hoffman. Hoffman later quit the race due to threats against his wife. The FBI investigated the hate campaign, but Watson wasn't punished. Watson was a barista who ran an anonymous blog where he posted snarky comments he made to customers. He posted comments such as, “What a coincidence! You have a gluten allergy, and I don’t care that you have a gluten allergy!” and "Thank you, have a nice day is retail-speak for, ‘I hate you, I hope you die in a fire.’” He was doxxed to his employer and was fired. He's now a stay at home dad and aspiring rapper. https://archive.ph/bD4Jf#selection-455.0-455.13 https://archive.ph/eKnj7, https://archive.ph/QnqQj
