I mean, CPUSA main branch is kind of hot ass garbage but hasn't JT said he doesn't really approve of it and he works with his local branch do actually promote more true ML stuff? At least that what I though last time I saw him really go into it but that was a while ago.... I don't think he's revisionist, I think he's doing the best he can to build a local movement with what's available to home.
I saw a few videos of his I disagree with but they have a purpose in doing that. Their podcast and videos are about brining people in to begin the "deprogramming." I remember finding their stuff after I had listened to all of the "Proles of the Round Table" and thinking "man this is some baby shit." Then some of my friends that were actual little baby commies and soc Dems listened to it and now they are going as hard as me and give me shit for not having read as much as them... So I get why they have to tone it down. If I introduced my firends to the harder stuff right off the bat... They'd never have continued to listen to me. I think their little trio has a purpose and that is it bring more viewers that aren't communists in closer. Ses to me they try to make content that's bother for harder communists and also people just begining to touch on it.
And I mean, it's working. I remember when I joined their subreddit and discord about a year and a half ago and general sentiments, many were still on the fence about China and shit. Now there lots of full blow support for Xi. I've seen a significant shift in it leading people harder left. The problem is people treat it like it's the last step
Like this is it and we should just only watch their stuff and nothing else. when it's meant to be stepping stones to more hard left stuff. Many of the later episodes got more hard left but they still have to make content to bring in the babies too. At least that how I see it.
And to all the haters... I mean, how many people have you actually radicalized by sitting here online and talking shit about people doing actual praxis?
