I can't believe 20 of you can't appreciate a perfectly good burn despite how good or bad of an argument the slime dude was making or whatever.

      Watching the recent video, I think he did okay showing Maupin being kind of dumb and dishonest, the only points that really bugged me-bugged me was when the other guy was like "communism is a moneyless, classless, stateless society" and Slime was like "I'm sorry say that last part again." as if ML's or whatever think full communism is when you have a state.
      and also when they just started dunking on China at the end for some reason.

        Is the recent video worth watching? Just based off the thumbnail/title alone I assumed there will be some more infuriating anti-ML stances and was planning on just taking a pass.

          I mean, maybe if you are still stanning Maupin after the nazbol and terf stuff this will put the nail in the coffin?
          or if you just like internet drama.
          but there isn't anything in there I would say you "have" to hear.

            I didnt even know who he was until the nazbol/terf stuff, so he gets 0 stanning from me. And internet drama is always hit-and-miss for me. So sounds like I'll just pass then.

        There's anarchists who take ML objections seriously and even support AES projects. Even youtube anarchists like Non-Compete, who has lived in Vietnam since 2012 or so, regularly defends the country on his channel and accepts that ML concepts are a viable approach for their revolution that produces results that outright impress him. He just thinks that AnCom is better suited to material conditions in the US. While that's a debateable idea, it isn't a stance that's underpinned by internalized American chauvinism.
