Don’t know why he wastes time criticizing him since JT doesn’t do anything wrong. Also really funny that him and other commenters are complaining about The Deprogram being like Chapo.
Upon deeper research, it turns out Day used to post on the subreddit to dunk on BadEmpanada, which is funny since Day himself has strong BadEmpanada vibes.
I found the descriptions he gave and references to other works handling similar positions plenty to begin the conversation. I found it to be plenty good enough to dismiss MMT, too, though I already had my issues with it. JT should defend it if he finds those not enough to dismiss MMT, and make that argument then. I don't think MMT deserves the time for expanded dismissal if Marx handled similar shit centuries ago well enough
I do think though that I agree about twitter being not great, but a public place to handle such things doesn't exist with as wide of reach unfortunately. Go and write articles in Jacobin or International, but who reads that anymore? We have to deal with that at the moment, and writing articles on your own site and referencing it on twitter seems the best option I've seen so far. And that's what Roderic does
