    calls himself an anarchist

    Hes also a reformist

    There's a disconnect here. Again:

    One of the worst, most counterproductive trends on the left is endless squabbling over what 10 different leftist labels mean and who is or isn’t each one of them. As you said, it’s their actions that are what’s most important.

      You can stan whoever you want but he just has bad takes on this and its needlessly antagonistic and just stirs up this infighting, and he never talks about HIS theory of change which he should be rightfully called out for.

        Let me amend this to:

        One of the worst, most counterproductive trends on the left is endless squabbling over what 10 different leftist labels mean and who is or isn’t each one of them based solely on their tweets

        Also:

        he never talks about HIS theory of change

        Lol he runs a fucking socialist magazine where he writes about this endlessly. If you're going to argue that someone hasn't done enough homework on leftist theory, do a minimal amount of homework on the person you're bashing?

              The guy is obviously committed to "you have to read something before you criticize it," far past the point of reason, and you honestly believe he's never read Marx?
