The African Revolutionary, or SBMYST, is a pedestrian in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Description[]
The African Revolutionary is a pedestrian who spawns on the streets in the poorer areas of San Fierro, and spawns anywhere in the city as a taxi driver. The pedestrian has radical political views, often exposing black nationalist and anti-capitalist ideas towards passersby. The pedestrian's ideologies are influenced by two unknown characters named Dr. Ben and Dr. Archbald, whose books and talks he mentions. He is shown to be very paranoid at times, accusing minor impediments like traffic jams to be the result of police interference. He also claims that his phone is being tapped by the government. During some talks, he references real-life conspiracies, namely the New World Order and the De Beers diamond monopoly, using the in-universe equivalent De Koch diamonds.
The pedestrian has been thoroughly investigated by myth hunters looking for links for the Epsilon Program or other groups, but to no avail. It seems that the African Revolutionary was included to satirize real-world conspiracy theories rather than provide clues towards any in-game mysteries.
