Every now and then, someone identifies a persistent problem behavior within movements, and says, "You know what we should do? Accuse everyone who does this of being a fed!"
Please allow me to assure you that this tactic will not cultivate the movement unity and harmony that you desire.

I'll also add that it's really hard to get people into movements and keep them there. This is a really big deal, because movements mostly win by recruiting lots and lots of people. If your instinctive response to issues is kicking people out, you're taking a sledgehammer to your own power source.
