People like that are much more common than you would think. It does a lot of damage to the leftists cause.
Maybe not the blackmailing charities part, that seems like an extreme example. But definitely weaponizing leftist jargon to punish people for any perceived slights while twisting language to make any pushback seem wrong.
Yes, I'm aware that this is very common.
This experience was educational for me. I learned that if someone is doing something wrong to others, even if it seems relatively small, they're probably doing something worse that you're unaware of.
