Since unsurprisingly the Redscare people are going fash, it would be good to know who's a grifter and who's not. What's your predictions?

My predictions:

Grifters:

  1. Zizek
  2. AOC
  3. 1-2 from Cumtown (it's anyone's guess)

Not Grifters

  1. The Deprogram Boys (ok I'm still in honeymoon)
  2. Jezza (obviously)
  3. Richard Wolfe & Harriet Fraad
  4. Viki1999
  • Antiwork [none/use name, he/him]

    This is such a boring argument. Leftism needs funny and enjoyable media. Doing those three things is more than most leftists on this site will do in their life. Creating media by itself does not “melt your brain.”

    And also isn’t he still heavily involved in a local DSA chapter?

    I’m saying it would be easy to get comfortable in a contrarian ultra-left conspiracy theorist position and then just drift right with time.

    At no time has he shown an inclination to do that.

    Why does every leftist need to be the leftist savior, Super hero? This is such a fucked way to look at other humans. Yeah you’ve done a shit ton to help spread leftist ideas, but are you doing everything? Nope, well guess you’re not the one true leftist and give it a few years and you’ll be a grifter.
