    The fact that he also literally only mentions capitalism a single time, while describing it as a "leftist catchphrase" among other "catchphrases" like racism, imperialism, homophobia, ethnic rights etc, is a pretty fundamental indictment of his societal analysis.

    Its literally just clownish that you could spend that much time trying to analyse society and you dont take capitalism into serious account, and its pretty clownish for this fact to not be more acknowledged when people talk about his work on the left. I remain entirely convinced that his reputation as a "mad/misunderstood and mistreated genius" is a deliberate op to mislead people from effective analysis and solutions into just eco-reactionary nonsense.
