This article is hilarious. Real dissidents do not get fawning attention from the New Yorker. Real dissidents don't meet in named establishments in Manhattan. If real dissidents meet in unfurnished houses and entertain themselves with folk songs on the guitar, it is not in Georgetown, where you'd be lucky to find a house under $1 million. We are told that these gatherings are "mostly white": yes, with whites with surnames like Siskind, Katz, and Gold.
