As a part of the left myself, this is the kind of thing that makes the left insufferable. Things change. People change. No one owes anyone an explanation for who they are or their lack of ideological purity or consistency. I thought that's what made us "the left".

I did. The "I'm just saying it's weird people do X now" is a rhetorical device. Or in his case: "eerie". Why is it "eerie"? If it was truly fine, it wouldn't be "eerie". It's in there for a reason. Can't just say "It's great that people do X now"?
