I've tweeted directly about Recidiviz as well. And I was tweeting about criminal justice reform long before it became the topic du jour. It has been the main focus of my domestic charitable donations for the last 5 years.
Like so many on the left, you seem to be focused on attacking people on the same side who seem to you doctrinally impure, instead of your actual enemies. That sort of attack is easy and satisfying, why it's so popular, but it's not what makes real change happen.

We’re more closely aligned than you think. The entire point I’m responding to is your frustration by those on the same side as you who you tactically disagree with. My disagreement with you is in that same vein.

That doesn’t mean that my (or as you’ve noted, your) primary focus and avenue for change is in that vein. And you have an opportunity to bring those amateur revolutionaries more in line with your tactics than I do. But it requires viewing them with more respect.
