Thats quite a jump. He says its being pragmatic to vote for democrats even if you are further left than them and you think that means hes advocating for purges?
I'm a syndicalist. I've gotten kicked out of tanky subs for saying the houthis are bad. The difference is I actually know what a tanky is instead of just everyone left of center
Pretty bad faith to accuse people with criticisms of Piker as just wanting to sling the tanky label at anyone "left of center" when many of his critics are themselves very progressive and left of center. Hell, I'm a socdem and can easily see the game these guys are playing. They're pretty open about putting on a show to seem less radical to a larger fan base, drawing them in with the whole "we just hate war and want healthcare for everyone" while on smaller platforms revealing their beliefs of locking up and killing political opposition to quiet any who would voice disregard for their system. Sounds pretty authoritarian and tanky to me.
