Why did these videos get made? Was it an honest attempt at social justice? A grift? Clickbait? Why were they so disliked? As Marxists I think we can get to the bottom of this.

    Okay, yeah, it is, but pinning psychoanalysis to Marxism doesn't make Marxism better, it makes psychoanalysis look less bad. It's like mixing shit with ice cream.

    That said some of my favorite theorists have put Delueze to good use, so it's whatever

      Definitely, all the good parts of critical theory come from the Marxist aspects of it and all the weird stuff is from they psychoanalysis aspects.
