Figured I could get the best recommendations here since most "breadtubers" seem to be fundamentally liberal, milquetoast socdem types. Especially interested in theory, etc. topics like that. The longer the video the better.

Not to start this struggle session again, but his prostitution take isn’t that bad. Under capitalism prostitution is a sorry means of survival or petty bourgeois lifestyle. “Sex work” under socialism is an absurdity. People can fuck whomever and still get the minimums for life, but it doesn’t make sense to pour money into an unproductive industry. If anything - as cockshott implies - stay at home parents are worthy of monetary compensation for their contribution to society.
I was aware of the terf stuff and unequal exchange stuff, but didn’t have much exposure to it. I will look into those links.
He literally calls sex workers "wh*r*s" in the piece I linked which is supposed to be serious Marxist economic theory.
I don't support prostitution (I also never use the term swerf because it draws completely incorrect parallels between sex work legalisation and trans liberation) but this is deplorable.
Obviously I'm not the first person to notice it and he kept it like that on his blog for years so it's exactly what he meant to say, too.
Fair enough
