    Oh, 100%. There's virtually no serious engagement with revolutionary politics in the mainstream analytic tradition. Most professional philosophy across the board is just garbage, and I say that as a professional philosopher. I mostly do fairly niche foundation of climate science and complexity stuff, though, so I have little contact with either mainstream analytic or continental stuff. I was going to say that my professional work is basically separate from my political engagement, but that's not exactly true: I radicalized in large part because of my work on climate science.
