This is how the left dies.

So many battles to fight. So many massive, powerful forces to contest: offshore finance, oil and mining companies, the billionaire press, corrupt political funding, Trump, Johnson, Bolsonaro ....

Instead we rip into each other. https://twitter.com/Abhrahm1/status/1318137652726525952

We might not agree on everything. But effective solidarity means overlooking small differences to unite on big projects.

Cue this exchange, on repeat for 10 months now:
-You were anti-Corbyn
No I wasn’t.
-Yes you were
See my articles and videos.
- In 2017 you wrote a negative tweet about him
Yes, sometimes he drove me nuts.
- That proves it
I don’t give unconditional support to any pol.
-Traitor!

The demand for blind loyalty is the opposite of solidarity.
We must be allowed to temper our enthusiasms without being accused of betrayal.
Without nuance, without independent thought, without a diversity of views, there is no possibility of progress.
