I don’t understand how or why he keeps hating on MLs so much. There was a point where he was saying how the argument liberals make for why they can never do any better is blah blah blah all the fallacious tactics libs use and we know is wrong (this point he’s correct on). Then he said “doesn’t that sound a bit like Marxist Leninists…” and I almost got whiplash, why would you use a very large historical/international tendency as the benchmark to describe how bad liberals are??

Also he almost seems to acknowledge that bad tankies hiding under the bed are something real (though maybe this was sarcasm that I didn’t get).

His point about radical third spaces was certainly correct though, as well as that small groups that do something specific and material are probably better for their immediate community than another overly ambitious workers party with aspirations beyond their ability.

I know not to mind online personalities and certainly this is just another In a long list of reasons to realize that the internet is not a place of any real change.
