I don’t really think he knows this site’s culture at all. No one is dissuading people from reading theory lol
Yey or ney for him?
As someone said in the post
As far as I can tell, he’s a guy who spends all his time posting about how all leftists do is post.
And this ain’t the first time, Roderick’s a bit terminally online, arguing against other progressives like JT (Second Thought) and Michael Hudson…
Edit:
Ok I’ve made a right-deviationist mistake in saying that Michael Hudson is a progressive, and indirectly agreeing with the views of the former…
I’ve not investigated into JT’s MMT videos nor looked carefully into Hudson (I thought he was also against capitalism, turns out, only finance and feudalism…, just cares for industrial capitalism)
Ok, and so what?
Are we just doing hero worship now?
“This guy said something I liked once, so now I’m just going to assume that anything he says is good”
Come on
No, it’s not hero worship. It was a reasonable and correct deduction. I have criticisms of Roderic, but I have argued against and been convinced to support his position against MMT and Micheal Hudson.
