Aaaaand there's the other shoe dropping on the grift
Anyone who is in any way critical of my leadership or actions or moderation or motives is not only wrong but also a racist and owes it back to me in cash
If leftists have one weakness it's their vulnerability to loud grifters who wield the language of progressivism to not only make themselves totally immune to even the most well-sourced and level-headed of criticism, but to extract money and influence from those who either buy it or feel guilty enough to second-guess themselves.
You're not a bad leftist if this shit rubs you the wrong way.
