This guy "used to be" alt-right (i.e. a Hungarian Fascist), then it turns out he's still shit. :surprised-pika:

Editing to say I really do hope that all the dunking he's getting on his YouTube posts convinces this guy to read a bit and finally understand why his fascist beliefs were bad in the first place, and why he's wrong.
No you see, it's OK that they platformed a fascist/apologist without criticizing him, because they're... a leftist podcast or something.
they didn't just platform him, Liam spent half the episode agreeing with him lmao
Fucking embarrassing. :stalin-gun-1::stalin-gun-2:

yeah I mean there's being critical and dunking on the USSR, and then there's like 'that time my man spent 2 hours agreeing with a fascist about le tankies'. usually I just eye roll at Liam, but like the context of this is just :cringe:
Chomsky is also an anarchist, and he doesn't do the braindead "I will agree with fascists and imperialists about socialist states on every point because states are bad" thing.
He... very often does do pretty similar stuff to that.
there are a lot of good anarchist comrades. I don't wanna come off as somebody who hates anarchists. I have respect for comrades of all tendencies

anprims are reactionaries, they don't even claim to be communists. trots have posted a lot of cringe over the years, but if you're a British leftist like I am you work with trots or you're in a very fuckin empty room, like ALL big unions here are trot af
Damn, it's too bad no one ever wrote about primitive communism. :monke-beepboop:

If Against His-Story! Against Leviathan! doesn't change the way you conceive of history and power, I dunno what will. 🤷

SOME Trots :posadas:
Chomsky calls himself libertarian socialist and he does service imperialist propaganda like that from time to time.

There's also, uh, that one "socialist" state :my-hero:

More anarchists should embrace NonCompete thought

If you look at the recent posts about him on here, he's basically been defending the Nazis to own the USSR.

:this: Double-genocide theory is literally a form of Holocaust denial, except it's socially acceptable because all the shitlibs engage in it. It's also an actual fascist talking point, straight out of Nazi propaganda.
Minimizing Nazis by favorably comparing them to USSR. Ignoring that Hungary was an Axis power during WW2. Ignoring that western leaders basically all supported fascism and claiming that they simply rejected USSR methods. Agreeing with western powers not wanting to work with Stalin before WW2 (against fascism lmao). All from the single post.
Then there was the WTYP episode where he went all calipers and said the Russians were bad because enlightenment thinking didn't reach them.
Basically, being against the USSR during WW2 de-facto make you at least a fascist sympathizer, which is the same thing as being a fascist.
It's actually amazing how consistent it is. That was why I posted this - this dude is (unsurprisingly) a "former" fascist, who clearly hasn't let go of all his "previous" opinions.
