@xinit @tarakiyee He is too correct about too many things, and too prominent and too effective. They're not just going to let him run around loose-- they have GOT to use him as a sheepdog. Whatever tactics are used to convince people like Chomsky to hang out at Epstein's parties, or people like Bernie to obediently toe the party line, you can BET something like it is being applied to Cory Doctorow. He's a white cis male with money and fame. He'd have a hard time keeping perspective even if he was fighting HARD not to lose it. The sheepdog runs us around the yard to make us feel like we're getting somewhere-- to a point. And then it's BACK TO THE FOLD. So long as he never strays past suitably half-assed "reforms", he gets to live free and rich. As soon as he talks about deeper systemic changes, he'll get brought to heel.
