:yes-honey-left: jacobin is western social fascist imperialism and their editors parents have a million dollars and i dont feel lik
:castillo-cowboy: I WILL BE PUBLISHED IN JACOBIN
Jacobin always published stuff like that but they will always be labeled CIA since someone in the Grayzone found out that Jacobin editors talked to someone once who shook hands with a CIA agent once
To be fair, the two people at the Grayzone who criticized Jacobin for not properly vetting some of the speakers at one of their co-sponsored events are not necessarily 100% anti-Jacobin. They actually have friends who work for Jacobin like Denis Rogatyuk who is an international editor at Jacobin. They even publish the work of some Jacobin journalists.
Jacobin has generally been good for Latin American coverage imo, albeit with some exceptions like some of their earlier Bolivian coverage. Both Jacobin and the Grayzone were the only 2 left-wing outlets that I recall that had critical coverage of Yaku Perez leading up to the 2021 elections in Ecuador.
Yeah but there's a not so thin line between legitimate criticism against Jacobin and writing them off as "social fascists" for once not adequately vetting the speakers of their co-sponsored events. The people who on this site say Jacobin is bad belong to the latter group.
This, i love them too, they're pointing fingers to important contradictions and connections like 80% of the time like with the belarusian guy but other times they're just pulling pepe silvias
What Belarusian guy. I noticed most of their pepe silva moments seem to be on twitter.

Feel like Jacobin will publish anything left of the DNC so you get everything from succdem crap to Pedro Castillo. People call them CIA for the former but don't give credit where it's due for the latter.
This is their biggest strength and weakness. I do wish they would vet a bit better on who they publish.
Jacobin published something annoying once so now it's evil and we have to hate it and ignore it completely forever.
Geez between this and the DSA getting invited to Venezuela, who the fuck are we gonna call social imperialists now?
Yeah I think people are missing that this is the complaint people lob at them
