    If the take in this video (YourCommieDad) is true then this is so much more worse than just tailism (ie they are American Strasserites): https://youtu.be/7S6zqrQ2vbI

    Addendum: At this stage Liger and Garrido are not Strasserites but they need to be careful who they associate with and they should condemn the impression of tailism, and furthermore educate themselves about accomodating the reactionary (and ridding themselves of any reaction). One can become the company one keeps.

    • This guy seems cool and I will probably reach out to him but this video isn’t very accurate or thorough. It just kind of draws a few parallels between the Strasserites and what the guy admits are “vibe reads” off of MWM. I think it’s concerning that MWM may be clout chasing with ideas lifted from better authors and cultivating an audience of harder reactionaries like Infrared while focusing on their own relatively limited output on their blog and their own jobs.

      They do make legitimate criticism of the CPUSA and the far-right but encouraging people to devote more energy to those topics seems like it would be appealing to the feds.

      Strongly relate to putting off anything interrupting my audio stream until I’m forced to. Music + books is still the superior option.
