"a club that includes Glenn Greenwald, Joe Rogan, Jimmy Dore, Tulsi Gabbard and a long list of others, including non-Americans like Julian Assange"

Real human nature stuff writ large here. Evokes horrid episodes from Soviet & Maoist past. An enemy of the party is a subhuman fit to be eliminated.

But a FALLEN member of the party is worse. A betrayer. A Judas. A traitor to the holy cause.

I fear we're gonna see a lot more of this before the tide (hopefully) ebbs.

Didn't realize I was looking for a word at all.

But, yes, apostate certainly fits. As do heretic, nonconformist, convert . . .
