In general, the activists involved are the nicest, most conscientious people you could hope to know. But at some point, they took a wrong turn, and their devotion to social justice led them down a dark path.

Are they still purported to be the "nicest, most conscientious people you could hope to know" after "they took a wrong turn"?

This particular brand of politics begins with good intentions

Does it? What evidence do we have for that?

The link is to an account by an "escapee" from SJ. As such, it's a personal account, it does not claim to be an "objective" or an outside view.
