I guarantee that there are those on the so-called "Left" who have taken the deal with the devil to begin a "slow transition" from left-wing to right-wing. Actually, here's how I think it goes ... see thread...
So a left-winger with a large-ish following - let's say around 20K to 30K followers are offered money to begin a slow transition from "left-wing" to "right-wing"...
But the way they do it isn't like Dave Rubin or Candace Owens. They start out by going further Left. More left than anyone else. They declare themselves "pure" left.
They then express GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT AND DISPLEASURE at all the existing "left" politicians and parties and declare that ONLY THEY and THEIR IDEAS are "true left".
This obviously won't work.. so they become more and more left to where they make common cause with disgruntled right-wingers - because, after all, they too are fucked by the system....
Soon they start kneecap the nascent rise of the actual Left who are trying to make a difference, and start defending and even espousing right-wing politicians and policies. And the circle is complete. Currently on that path - well, I'll let you guess the grifters on that path...
