I watch his streams here and there. Mostly for the news, I feel like his platform is great for learning about things you generally don’t hear about on mainstream news. He does have this annoying tendency of pulling out straw man arguments and sometimes belittling anarchists/anarchist movements. It comes across as very disappointing cause outside of that the dude definitely knows his shit, and with 40k average viewers he could easily bring together a ton more leftists if only he was more open to anarchist theory. Wanna hear from my fellow comrades!

    My take is he’s a spicy liberal and so I don’t trust him and I don’t consider him a radical leftist in any meaningful way. He’s a sanitization of leftism, palatable to progressive democrats. Its nice that he seems able to get people into more radical leftist ideals, but that is all the credit I would give him. He’s like a gateway into radical left politics, but thats about it.
