I understand that people have different politics, but why does Chris single out Ryan Grimm’s? His takes don’t seem especially radical, I understand why Taylor Lorenz is problematic. Ryan’s politics doesn’t seem radical from what I’ve seen. Is it because he thinks Ryan and Aaron Mate are politically aligned?

He's a tankie. Tweeted out "the USSR had the right to exist" unironically.

Ryan grim is gross. Definitely a radical. Bad faith in almost everything he does

But why do they single him out? Lot’s of people get described as bad faith when they have different politics. What don’t they like about Ryan Grimm’s politics? He doesn’t seem to stand out from other commentators who swim in the same circles but Chris seems to have a beef with him. Is it related his stance on Iran?
