@MerkinMuffley5 @HeerJeet For giving money to one particular group. There are millions of young people in the United States and it makes a difference which ones you choose to support. — PolitiTweet.org

More generally you can’t just invoke the demographic characteristics of a group as a defense of its tactics, TP USA is “young activists.” But it’s also bad. — PolitiTweet.org

@HeerJeet Nobody is blaming “young activists.” I am blaming the economic elites who make the decisions about which people to give money to.

Oftentimes when people don’t want to defend an activist group’s decisions on the merits they attack its critics by offering a generic defense of activists or activism. But activists — like people in general — have different ideas. — PolitiTweet.org
