I've heard this guy being recommended multiple times, it's a shame bc some of his analysis may have some value, but this is inexusible amounts of stupidpol, he has many other endorsements of transphobia and homophbia on his twitter and it's always through the lens of saying gender essentialism is the materialist stance (more dunks in comments)

    Yeah, which is why I'm so befuddled by this shit that he's on right now. Maybe the brainworms developed after the 90s?

    Still would recommend reading TaNS, but definitely keep in mind his current bigotry. I haven't seen it pop up really, but maybe I'm missing something. Overall the book is useful as a tool for looking at possible systems for maintaining a socialist project with technology.

      I wonder what he thinks of Cuba's treatment of lgbt and specifically trans people these days. Does he believe Cuba is desperately being taken over by bourgeoise ideology? What does he think their new family legislation is and who the driving forces behind it were?
