Much like nature evolving animals into crabs multiple times, breadtube will inevitably trend towards Contrapoints.

Natalie would double in quality if she accepted things and became a serious communist or Marxist but she never will. I like to be reductive and assume it's because she's American.

I looked into who came up with MTW and look up original texts. I found out that the tendency originated from only American orgs that have iirc all dissolved (one founder died of an OD) by now. It should make you question things that in the third world itself there's no adoption of MTW. I concluded that MTW isn't really a serious thing anymore and was on the margins when it was a going concern.
I'm from the third world and I understand the well meaning intentions behind adopting a MTW position in the West but i don't think it's helpful and plays into the Feds' hands. Being any flavor of ML/Maoist is where it's at I believe and would dissuade from adopting a Third Worldist position.

Yeah. I think just Maoist is a much better term for anyone who thinks the third world has more revolutionary potential in this moment.
Where did you find about origins of TWM? Because I was under the impression it came from people like shaikh, fanon, then heavily influencing figures like che Guevara and sankara. Even just shortly googling it now to see if i was misremembering, i’m finding almost no American origins of TW/TWM? So if it is true, i’d be interested in learning more about if if you remember your source.
I looked at the references in the wiki article to be fair and went from there. It lead to Revolutionary Anti-Imperialist Movement or RAIM and it's affiliated groups. All the names you cite didn't aspired to a fully formed interpretation. They didn't have a party that had a "Maoist Third Worldist" postfix and didn't call themselves Maosit Third Wordlist either. There's a distinction between MTW-thought, which mostly concerns itself with what to do when you're inside the imperial core and anti-imperialist struggle in the third world itself, which is what Fanon, Che, Shaikh, Sankara and Amin do.

It's the other way round. MTW-thought is the Marxist tendency in the US (the name is like Mao Zedong-Thought is in the PRC). Everything else that you mentioned (Fanon, Che etc.) isn't really "Something"-Thought. It's just general Marxist analysis of specific conditions and not something you can really group under one name. Like, look up RAIM and you'll see what I mean.
"Natalie would become good if she believed in good things and not bad things"
*Natalie would become better.
Saying that she'd become good implies she's currently bad. Natalie isn't bad, just frustrating and not very helpful if you want to change things.
