Socialism

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.

Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

This community's icon was made by Aaron Schneider, under the CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.

I don't follow him for that long, can you elaborate why/how?

We go over this every week.

  • His main channels First and Second Thought will never mention it.
  • If you wanna know his real beliefs you have to find him on the Deprogram or on his other socials, the more personal the less careful he is to hide it.
  • I'm gonna play the guilt by association card, because he's a political pundit, and all of his public appearances are with tankies who have even more explicitly red fascist style views.
  • Here's a major take: He plays "both sides" on the Russia and Ukraine conflict. Negotiate for peace? Ukraine should give up land? Ukraine should end the war? People who say this want Russia to walk away with new land and a new second class of people. Or maybe would even be okay if it happened to more independent states.
  • He hasn't changed his views, he's simped over the USSR, done the "America always bad" take reoeatedly: Imperialism is when America does it, not when China or Russia does it.
