Timothy Gordon at a Stop the Steal rally in Louisiana.

In early January, I noted that Ali “Alexander” Akbar, a twice-convicted felon and leader of the now-infamous “Stop the Steal” seditious insurrection, was preparing his next move in advance of the sure-to-fail rally on January 6th by announcing his desire to convert to Catholicism. My note on Twitter sparked outrage by conservative Catholics in the USA who called Mr. Akbar a modern-day St. Paul. (They have all now gone totally silent about this.) Amongst the outraged was Timothy Gordon, who himself attended a prior Stop the Steal rally (pictured above) and fomented ideas of civil war, “color revolution,” and other violent nonsense like this before and after the 2020 US election. Here is but one example he has since deleted:

After I replied to Mr. Gordon, he told me “if you cats on the left learned to disagree productively, debating dispassionately, then we could actually get somewhere.” I offered to show him that I could, indeed, meet his proposed criteria for debate and we began to wrangle over a debate resolution.
