EDIT: Even though we're dunking on a few of these people, The Toxic Leftist isn't a good account either. They describe themselves as a "rightwing leftist".

Sorry, if you call yourself a historian of Cuba, but you post reactionary, anti-communist takes, than I'd argue your title and credentials have a right to be called into question especially if you defend SOSCuba protesters and bash "tankies" and PSL.
Bad politics don't mean someone lacks knowledge about a subject. There are countless examples of knowledgeable people who have bad politics for material or social reasons. It's a mistake to think "if only this person read one more book they'd have better takes."
You made a mistake (thinking this guy was exaggerating his credentials) and are doubling down instead of acknowledging it.
