When every single thing you post / tweet (regardless of how passionate you are) aligns neatly w/ one ideological group or political party, you’re not prophetic voice. You’re a partisan hack.
True prophets challenge their own tribe. It’s easy to rip on the outgroup. In fact, it strengthens your standing in your tribe. But true prophets cut against the grain of their cultural & political allegiances and take costly stances. It’s why they end up dead.
Most the people on here regarded as prophetic are just footsoldiers in a culture war. And the telltale sign is that you know exactly what their take is on any given story before they give it. They’re as predictable as clocks. They never challenge their tribe.
