This is premised on the conceit that most "left-leaning social-types" are doing or saying anything relevant, which is questionable at best. I'm not saying there aren't thoughtful, interesting people concerned with social justice, but 90% of them seem entirely focused on deplatforming, signal boosting, call outs, and virtue signaling. This holds especially true for the twitter and facebook based radicals. There's nothing relevant happening on social media. Full stop.

I know they love Chomsky so maybe reading Manufacturing Consent and applying a bit of critical thinking would be helpful. Spectacular politics is a trap. Media discourse is a dead end. None of that shit matters.
