  • Shit like this just makes me extremely suspicious of what secrets this org is hiding.

    Small/medium political sects (of any tendancy) have a pretty bad record to start with, and then someone feels the need to repeatedly defend people like this? Even in the best case it’s extremely poor political judgment and disconnection from people’s reality, and a bad signal of who will be attracted or repelled as members/supporters.

    They unfortunately aren’t the only offender, but they might be the most stubborn and vocal about it.






  • At some point they’re going to have to leave Minneapolis, it’s not like they’ll stay there for years just to prove a point, it’s unsustainable. When they leave, they’ll try to spin it as a victory - they left because they succeeded, not because they were despised. And then they’ll go somewhere else (Maine supposedly?) and the same process will repeat. If they’re feeling weak, they might look for a weaker target, which might be part of the reasoning for Maine.
