Ryan Knight was once someone I considered a friend. We worked together early on in the resistance on advocacy for LGBT Americans and Democrats. I’m not sure what exactly happened to him. His stances have become short sighted and counter to who I know him to be.
This initially angered and frustrated me as someone who was at times a sounding board and someone I spoke to about ideas. First was the attacks on Pelosi... which were out of left field. Those attacks on Pelosi, the leader of the Dem party and most powerful women in the US,.....
came completely from out of no where. He then became a Warren backer. That is something we were on the same page about. But he chose to support her by trying to damage other democratic candidates. In a year where ....
winning the presidency is literally life and death. I tried to help him to understand it was best to not hurt other Democrats in order to boost his candidate. The same candidate I supported. I also understood that being a Warren supporter alone wasn’t enough, as no one...
running was a shoo-in. If winning the White House was the goal why hurt any candidate on the dem side? Why possibly damage someone who could end up our nominee? Ryan chose a different route. He chose to support Warren by trying to damage other candidates....
Including the first gay candidate with a chance. I supported Warren on her merit, I supported her policy and platform. Ryan’s tactics put me in a place where I had to remove him from my circles. Ryan’s type of politics is gross and what’s wrong with America, and how...
we ended up with Trump in the first place.

Fast forward to a few weeks before Warren dropped out of the race and Ryan magically woke up one day as a Bernie bro. Proudresister overnight became a mean Bernie bro. And adopted the vile vitriol that Bernies camp is known for.
Shortsightedness and word poison was what he adopted.

As someone who actually can say he knew Ryan Knight aka Proudresister. I am telling you someone happened, someone bought him and his words, or has something on him and is forcing this. Nothing about what Ryan is....
doing now. Trying to activity hurt Democrats chances of winning. Is of value to Democrats. Ryan Knight is Donald Trump supporter, he supports tactics and uses tactics and propaganda that helps Donald Trump. A man who used to be my friend has flipped for reasons I don’t...
understand. It saddens me and makes me ill to write this. But it is the last time I will speak of Ryan. To say his name is to promote his propaganda. Tha is not something I can comfortable with.
A little addition to the thread..... he patently woke up and became a republican.
