Yes, he got my ass by acknowledging it in the final tweet, "hmm curious that this is liberal and reductive, almost like I meant it that way"

I like his videos, but his Twitter takes, not so much. Is this a me problem?

    Many Marxists would argue that the "human rights" framing is an idealistic artifact of liberal philosophy, and explaining things in terms of results rather than deontological rules is more productive.

    The more important critique to that and his post is that explaining things just in terms of end goals and not immediate action to move in a better direction is a waste of time.
