Why do you bring up their sole redeeming quality other than having read three articles by Gabriel Rockhill about Adorno and Marcuse etcetera for me to get mad at it.

In fact, I doubt they have read it, since a lot of these guys try to recoup Heidegger and Zizek while pretending none of their critics have done more than draw associations between them and reactionary thought & institutions - not true of course. It’s not that difficult to tear apart stuff like Heidegger’s word games about being, and saying that shit really displays how little they read of criticism of their favorite writers, suggesting they haven’t gotten through much of the original texts, enough to quote mine probably.

Their rejection of structural racism and invention of reverse woke structural racism (analysis of structurally embedded racism in US finance capital is all throughout writing by Michael Hudson, as he talks about the legacy of redlining and the 2008 catastrophe of black household wealth, they also pretend to have read him!!) seems like direct fed counterplay to me, but I’m not going to bother with deep investigation into more infuencer debate tourney bullshit if I don’t have to. None of this lends any legitimacy to Sakaiist Twitter leftist ideology.

i’m really not interested in your personal esoteric rejection of both these nazbol grifters and whatever you seem to think third worldism is about.

It’s not a “personal esoteric rejection” it’s a broader grounding in Marxist theory, specifically anti-imperialist theory, dependency theory, unequal exchange, core/periphery and other world systems models, sorry that’s not informed by Twitter and Youtube leftists from the anglosphere-dominated internet, but instead informed by Marxist texts already popular in China and Latin America, but only translated within the past 5 years. Personally I think I’m lucky.

I think you are the ones with a personal esoteric rejection. It’s like attacking Caleb Maupin and Tariq Nasheed for being sexually perverse, instead of being obvious informants. It’s clear the existence of “patriotic socialists” is met with absolute glee by the online western left. It validates you as much as NAFO people and the CPUSA base.

you’re posting on an anonymous internet forum called “chapo trap house” if you want to educate people make an actual c/effort post about it and do so. but so far you’re just rocking into a shitpost and claiming to have achieved such great theoretical understanding that you have moved beyond thinking that Settlers is a useful text, which is fine, but you also refuse to elaborate. you’re making assumptions about me at least because i don’t know who the fuck you’re talking about or what glee i’m supposed to be experiencing about patsoc grifters. i’m personally disappointed. so. not really sure what you’re thinking you’re doing here. if this is a bit, then blackmoldfutures did it better
