    WTYP is my guilty pleasure as a hardliner ML. I still cringe a little every time they talk about "state capitalism" and it annoys the shit out of me.

      Yes. I'm not trying to brag but tbh sometimes it feels like the WTYP hosts remind me of where I was a few years ago when I was still a baby socialist. Like, I think I had mostly good takes and stuff, but still didn't buy that China was good and still had some vague notions about the USSR was sorta good/sorta bad, maybe in roughly equal proportions. I had these views only because I hadn't bothered to spend time to actually learn and research things.
