The only maybe (hard to say honestly) credible criticisms I've heard about Smalls is that he's a bit egotistical and likes to garner a fanclub. From one of those "another liberal has written a scathing Google Doc and shared it with everyone" kinds of things. But this is so unimportant and minor, the decision to even write and share it is questionable. Like if he's a little annoying and it gets in the way of organizing just spend your time out-organizing him instead.
These kinds of hit pieces are only attractive to liberals who see him as a threat. He criticizes their projects so now he's on the NYC DSA lib hitlist, they're going to write a Jacobin article about him so hard.
The TrueAnon subreddit is completely incoherent and has a lot of reactionary sentiments. I think its only saving grace is the crossover from our community.
Reminds me of the “Starmichael” criticism for Stokely Carmichael before he was Kwame Ture. I bet we could find similar grumbling about Big Bill Heywood or any other labor leader who was known to the general public.
Basically anyone charismatic. Charisma comes across as ego (and sometimes is ego).
yeah trueanon subreddit is like 50% the same as here, 25% redscarepod and 25% DSA libs
results in very weird comment sections that are sometimes based, sometimes read like r/politics and sometimes have edgy reactionary sentiment
They have a hard-line on China that results in a lot of reasonable people being banned. You can't even have a nuanced position like supporting them as a socialist state but believing they need to do more international support. I got permabanned there for arguing that very position with someone.
