    Nice his alt-right playbook series was really instrumental in my understanding of fascism and tangentially becoming a communist.

    I remember one of the videos where he ended it saying "If you want to fight fascism, move left"

    That really resonated with me.

      I was on a nearly-parallel trajectory with you there.

        Yep was watching him and Contrapoints, Philosophy Tube, and some leftist media critics like Hbomb and Renegade Cut and as I came to the realization that the people I found had the most insightful analysis were at least some flavor of Marxist or anarchist, I started to realize so much about my own ideology that I had been lacking the language and vocabulary to articulate. Then I stumbled across the Chapo podcast ironically through the youtube algorithm, they were mercilessly shitting on Hillary and Obama but obviously not in the same way or for the same reasons that chuds do and I started realizing I needed to completely reeducate myself politically.

          The puppet show adventures of Super Jump Woman and Necky Beard spiritually guided me to where I am today.

            When we overthrow capitalism and implement real global communism EJ will be making communist education kids shows like an even more based version of Sesame Street.

            I, too, needed the labor theory of value explained to me with hand puppets. What can i say, it worked and got me to read Luxemburg and Lenin and things like that.
