I've watched hours and hours of his talks, and found some of what he says to be useful or interesting. But what is he really saying?
- Most is barely intelligible, with tangents upon tangents of weird psychoanalytical jargon.
- The jokes function to disarm and disorient anti-communist talking points.
- The core message seems to usually be "idpol bad" (which is true, at least for the liberal variants), but nothing much more interesting.

SUBTEXT: Ex-Yugoslav lib reformer now supports COMMUNISM*! If he can, so can you!

his thoughts on irony/the way satire is coopted are interesting and 100% borne out in the way every ironic space on the internet inevitably gets poisoned and turned into part of the fash pipeline
