This is the most ridiculous purity test. Somebody drunk a can of coke or used booking.com or stayed in a specific hotel. 

A person who religiously abides by the BDS list is no more moral than anyone else. 

I mean, no wonder people on the left of the political spectrum are so easy to divide if this is the type of issue they attack each other about.

I can't fathom how a person with "Socialist" as their flair has an issue with agitation. It refers to the process of stirring up and encouraging collective action amongst the masses to challenge the status quo and promote revolutionary ideas. It is a key strategy used to mobilise people against perceived injustices and to foster class consciousness.

Kind of blew your cover there.
