  • I’d describe him as “libs first stepping stone” toward leftism. People like him are necessary for initial growth in leftist thought, not the end point of it, and that’s okay. I have noticed that post-Kirk he has shifted right overall in his rhetoric, but hard to say how long that’s been happening as I’ve only visited his streams since last election

    Also he conflated Maoism with ML + Mao Zedong thought










  • Also… where do you get the notion I’ll abandon “the left” from this? See where my left is? What makes you think I’ll abandon anything?

    Our other previous interactions, plus othering the other forms of leftism that are different than yours. “Not MY left,” instead of just leaving it blank comes off alarmingly as “I don’t do solidarity with leftists I don’t agree with,” which you then doubled down on by saying just that below.

    I’m all for helping everybody.

    I was already never much a fan of the word “solidarity”

    and there we have it. The greatest threat to all leftist thought is capitalism, and to be willing to stand against it in solidarity is what is needed before we devolve into attacking other leftists. Funny also that you’re willing to question anyones leftiness if you don’t agree to their flavor.
