Also, Wolff definitely moved him left. He's not a solution and neither are his policy ideas. Both Wolff and co-ops are stop-gap measures. He says as much about co-ops, and I think he knows his audience is non-socialists he can hook into the concepts. He alone won't convert people, just open them up to the ideas. It's the same shit as when Sanders is a socdem, but by saying he's a socialist and associating the word with meeting people's needs with popular solutions, he's opening people to talk about it.
BDS Should be Supported
Marx wrote a lot more than Capital, and it's not that hard to read. It's just long.
Stalin is neither a good introduction to Marxism nor an appealing persona. 0/10, apply yourself.
Well it's not really the co-op shit that gets me (Marx himself thought they were a good idea) but sometimes he says stuff like praising FDR and that's where I draw the line. You're right that Wolff moved him to the left, but the problem his Wolff sometimes underestimates his audience and thinks he needs to provide baby-tier explanations. His lectures are much more advanced but for some reason his outreach attempts are often too dumbed down.
What's wrong with his works? They break down Marxism for the common man. Its only his persona that scares people away.
have you ever been to america
Uncle Joe is working from an interpretation of an interpretation of Marx. He alters and even invents ideas to mold Marxism into what he thought the USSR needed. If you're going to use an interpretation of Marx at least use one that's relevant to a situation that exists in the world today.
Haha I remember, I was in the chat while Jimmy was praising Bernie. I donated with a message along the lines of "Bernie betrays Venezuela, never trust a socdem". A lot of other viewers obviously helped, but less than an hour later he went on that rant.
Fuck off. Opposing a genocidal ethno-state is not "antisemitism", even if there are also other genocides which don't receive as much publicity. If Israel wants to end "antisemitism", maybe it should consider committing slightly less genocide.
Even considering how shit the US and the UK is, they don't exclude 50% of their population from voting and build a wall around them. Compared to fucking Israel the US is progressive.
Well the only reason Isreal is even capable of doing that is the US.
Neo-conservatism and Zionism are deeply religious movements, and you are uninformed about what the CIA does around the world.
