Probably my least favourite thing about being an activist is getting sucked into the internal politics of either TPM or the Greens. Can't really think of an instance where TPM sucked me in, though there's been a few points of debate over my activism. All the Greens feedback and chatter has been immensely irritating. It was fun in 2022 when I was saying that Chloe should wait to contest the leadership until after the 2023 election, but since then it's all been downhill.


I prefer not knowing. I'd rather judge people based on their oratory rather than on things that I know from behind the scenes.
