      I don't care one way or another about Keffals, I care about people falling for an obvious op that is going to undermine one of the only effective campaigns to weaken the people who want all three of us dead!

        it doesnt matter at all that principled leftist people don't care for someone with half baked and even regressive politics, who as someone else pointed out is not being attacked because of an op but because they did something to warrant backlash. it's not that hard to accept

          It's all petty nonsense you're getting baited into both as a substitute for actual, meaningful politics, and another means of undermining an actual conflict with actual reactionaries. It is the simulacrum of politics without any materiality or connection to reality.

          further, to say its an op implies there's a reason for it and the reason you're proposing is that she took down kiwifarms. but that's already done. saying its an op for this reason implies that she's the only one who could have done it, and will also probably do something worthwhile in the future that needs to be counteracted now by tanking her popularity.

          which is a ridiculous angle to block criticism that requires a large helping of invested interest or parasociality to make in good faith. seeing someone fight and win (if only briefly, really) against platforming transphobia in such a concrete way is awesome yea but she's not worth dying on a hill over
