i think it's a great lib radicalisation video if there's anybody in your life you may want to share with

yes he concludes with coops, whether you like that or not he spends 99% of the video eviscerating capitalism with history and personable real life everyday experience

    Yeah I definitely fall into the "thought this was too red browny to be good" category. A first nations youtube channel I'm subscribed to had some positive coverage of the protests that surprised me, but watching it seemed to just be generic anti-vax solidarity. I'm definitely open to the idea that vaccination requirements can be anti-worker, but the arguments seem to never be framed in a sane way, like providing additional sick days if required to get vaccinated. It always just seems like blanket anti-vax messaging, but I haven't spent much time paying attention to speak with authority.

      Yeah for sure I'm not trying to say the protestors were good or had good takes at all, they were ultimately mostly just CHUD shitheads mostly motivated by the idea that their open resistance to the liberal consensus would make liberals mad and that's like their one lever of power. But that doesn't make them fascists and doesn't mean leftists engaging with them is bad, that's all.
