To be clear, I never said it was Horseshoe Theory. And the ITT article says on at least two occasions "it's not horseshoe theory" directly. I'm arguing that these folks were NEVER left, just piggybacking on the left wing wave produced by the first Sanders primary campaign in 2016, to make money. They didn't change their opinions, because they weren't doing any of this out of belief. Indeed, if you told me that whole crew was an op, I couldn't DISPROVE it. But I think "greed" & "shit ppl."
