i dont think that comment is in reference to leftists turning on an antigun stance but right wing media turning on their hardline 2nd amendment stance to vilify them for it

Ohhh, I guess I interpreted the quoted tweet as positive

It helps to have the context of the views of the speak. Hasanabi is a left guy (I had to double check this).

I knew Hasan was left but not that the quoted tweet was a conservative reporter complaining about it

I think the person you replied to is confused because the headline seems mostly factual, and the "they" in Piker's post kind of has an ambiguous antecedent because of it.
