Batya Ungar-Sargon is an all around grifter who works for Newsweek and has been slinging red/brown for awhile. She has been pushing the boundaries on her mainstream/alt writing though lately, but has been talking a lot about class issues trying to make it sound like libertarians would be better for workers than socialists. This woman lies about socialism like it is her mission in life. Very dangerous.

More interesting is that Spiked was formally Living Marxism, these are Trots who became libertarians when the grifting was greener on the other side.

These trots went libertarian in the 1990's and are rebranding again. So watch out for shit like this. It seems there has been a massive organized campaign for red/brown pipeline propaganda lately. Report it if you find it.

    Spiked, red brown? Well I never! At this point it’s basically just brown. Their front page is just “transphobia, :freeze-peach:, racism, whitewashing transphobia and racism, etc”

    Having “now the speech police are coming for gamers” right above “being back kink shaming”is extremely funny

    One of the things giving me hope lately tbh. The fact that the money behind this even finds it necessary means that despite everything, the winds of public opinion are blowing far more our way than they're comfortable with.
