I am not a spoke-person for the movement
But here’s some consensus:
There is definetly criticism to be made about leadership. However, any serious leftist should know that they can’t just come into an explicitly peaceful movement and start agitating for violence. Not only is it dumb and likely to get you ousted, but it’s dangerous and irresponsible, both to the safety of its members and the public perception of the movement itself. — VioletVixen
While I do have concerns over our more left wing allies being dissuaded from speaking up, I recognize that they often come in swinging with pretty drastic rhetoric. I do think that we need to make some big changes in general if we get the chance, but we can work together to make those changes as a people — yersin1962
Big tent ultimately does mean you can’t hold extremism. Socialists, anarchists, communists and all are free to participate. But the goal of the movement isn’t anything extreme (stop executive overreach). and that’s what is going to be worked on. Most people are on the center. So ultimately, that group has a little more leeway in how the movement goes, since the center represents the majority of the movement, and also the majority of the population in general. I very likely have views that are disagreed on by the majority of people here, but those views have no importance because it’s not related to the idea of stopping executive overreach. — kaishamarket
I believe in inclusivity and I doubt the movement is censoring anyone, its just talk about violence when the movement is peaceful is not generally tolerated. Figuring out how to accept everyone without changing the movement is to given a serious thought. This is a grass-root movement and there will be growing pains. I hope you understand.
Because it comes with the territory and the optics of being in those groups. I do not think anyone really said we are excluding all these other groups that is aligned to the leftist ideology. You are just assuming here, not sure why.
