Marxists can predict the future to some extent. So what marxist would think investing in property in LA of all places is a good idea. That place is not going to be a good place to live in the future climate change is going to fuck it hard. Never mind that capitalism has already fucked it hard it is already a miserable palce to live if you are poor. It is notorius for the worst of urban planing and sprawl. Like it's hell to anyone with sense.
So like why take out mortgage and invest 3 million into that. I get he is in "showbiz" and needs to be near Hollywood but all that really means is he needs to be close to some of the worst propgandist in the world and schmooze in some of the most bebauched and depraved parties imaginable and what ever else sychophantic psychopathic arse kissing passes for networking over there. All he has done is bound his material intrestest with that of the bourgeosie. Because now he will need to protect his investment and property to keep his family and new wealth.
I don't think people are wrong to point out this it's not envy or jelousy it's seeing pattern repeat and not having the words to describe it becuase they haven't read theory. Dude's material conditions are changing and that changes your outlook and not trusting an ego driven youtuber to stay strong and keep to their morals is perfectly sensible.
IDK maybe some theory nerds can put it into better words or maybe I'm wrong I've only been following this drama on here.

Trust is built based on a persons actions. The actions of Engels and Hasan are completely different. It's also telling that you had to go all the way back to Engels for your example of a class traitor. They're not exactly common are they?

You're the one who compared him to Engels, though.

Call me when Hasan starts sounding as much like a class traitor as Engels...
Engels was famous for saying "Don't like it? Well you should tax me then."
Hasan Piker, famous anti-tax activist
You missed the point my dood.
Engels believed workers should own the means of production to bring about socialism. Hasan seems to think wanting to raise taxes on people like him is all it takes to be a socialist. If he structured his business as a co-op and paid his damn mods and editors their true value there would be significantly less to be upset about. The comparison makes no sense.

Everyone knows you bring about socialism through taxes. All the best left thinkers are saying this.

This dang Deng guy keeps getting in the way of my aesthetics! Socialism should be about getting a degree at the school of hard knocks and that's a fact.

Since when did Marxists cancel Engels? I never signed that petition

I can't tell if your post was satirical now... Are you saying that Engels should be "cancelled" out of the progression of Marxist theory because of his background?
I'm sorry but if serious I find that absolutely ridiculous lol. On that same line of thinking, we should just go ahead and cancel every other renowned revolutionary thinker for "non-revolutionary characteristics".
