Pretty interesting. A lot of these points have become the norm for any discussion in leftist spheres. How do we combat this?

    I think the points highlighted in the tweet are important because they show that if a person is only interested in sowing division, being overly cautious, re-litigating old arguments etc. then they might not have the best interests at heart.

    Like, obviously there isn't a hard and fast rule or line that you have to cross - but I think in general you can figure if a person is being needlessly contrarian or frustrating.

      Nick is a good dude, I've chatted with him a lot over the last few months, I watched him go from being a Bernie guy to more and more radical. I saw people on here yesterday calling him a grifter and that didn't sit well with me given my interactions with him.

        Lmao he's using Fred Hampton's name for his social media branding. If that doesn't scream "grifter" to you...idk, man.
