Since unsurprisingly the Redscare people are going fash, it would be good to know who's a grifter and who's not. What's your predictions?

My predictions:

Grifters:

  1. Zizek
  2. AOC
  3. 1-2 from Cumtown (it's anyone's guess)

Not Grifters

  1. The Deprogram Boys (ok I'm still in honeymoon)
  2. Jezza (obviously)
  3. Richard Wolfe & Harriet Fraad
  4. Viki1999

Principled leftists don't have podcasts, they're working to grow labor unions and running mutual aid orgs.

Spreading left wing propaganda is still important. There's a reason right wing assholes are given a megaphone to drown everyone else out in the media.
