We want a dictatorship, but not in the sense that libs mean. We want a dictatorship of the proletariat!

I admire Norm and think he's probably one of the most important voices in the left ATM, but he is a transphobe. I'd nominate Xi, personally.
Same for Paul Cockshott
There's also Zizek, who is also not cool for several other reasons, but IDK if the stuff he says about NATO and Ukraine is supposed to be ironic in the usual Zizek way. Saying that stuff about trans people is way over the line, though, because if you aren't well read on Zizek to understand the irony (IF he was being ironic) it just contributes to transphobia. Like, read the room old man, no one wants your masturbatory Hegelian meta-analysis or whatever when trans people are being denied healthcare and access to bathrooms.

...where is the irony?
