easier said than done when the types of people who think everything is an op do have critical thinking skills and more than enough proof a lot of shit WAS an op. like I get why this happens, it's not that they're stupid and lack critical thinking skills, but it's more a case of paralysing over caution
I think the fundamental problem of the current left is that if you are a critical thinker, care about people, and actually try to practice what you think is right, you have to be a communist or anarchist of some sort. However, if you also analyze history, it seems impossible to get our work done in the world around us, and like we will all die before the capitalists let us do anything good. That's just a solid analysis of what has happened to our best movements and leaders. Remaining hopeful in this world is hard, but we have to do it for the good of ourselves and everyone else.
The solution is to encourage critical thinking skills in all comrades to make identification of bad faith actors easier, of course.
