The rent strikers at least proposed making a program and instead of either leading themselves or offering a more coherent strategy our big brained super marxist threw cold water on the idea and went on to recap david lynch movies for the billionth time. This is really the core of the problem to me. We have people who have a ton of money, who have a ton of reach, and they are perfectly content being commentators forever. This gets framed as the serious marxist thinker that for some reason needs ever more money and attention.
Then we have the naive people with no resources fucking up because they are effectively alone, having to start from scratch perpetually because most of the funding the left generates burns away on ephemeral campaigns or minting the new bourgeois of the prior group. This is effectively the group who all movement and progress within the left depends upon, but they're unserious.
It's not a plan, it's decentralized (neoliberal) random people doing things without being attached to any program
