What kind of electoralism is it, proletarian or bourgeois, idealist or materialist? Do they declare solidarity with the occupied third world, or do they sympathize with the naval gazing narcissism of the first world labor aristocracy?

The fact that Bad Faith believes "self driving cars are the future" and "we can go full clean energy without fossil fuels" tells us they're just merely woke liberals who don't know about the effects of resource extraction. How can you be a Marxist with less of an understanding of basic physics than papa Karl? It's impossible to be a materialist if you're as delusional as the Elon Musk death cult redditors

    Everyone needs money to survive. Podcasting is not exploitation. And there's nothing wrong with donating to people who produce free content you like. What next? Are you going to start attacking street performers?

    What you're doing now is moralizing bullshit, not material analysis. Class is not defined by money or type of labour, but relation to the means of production.

      Wannabe media ghouls = nobody drummer on the corner of park & 5th with virtually no safety net or social or political connections. Ok pal, good take, that’s the real “material analysis”. Doubt you’d extend this type of absurd leniency to something that you didn’t have a hard on for. Very good faith of you to retreat to orthodox Marxism for your analysis on podcasters lmao, what a joke.

        Yes. They're producing the same class of commodity, derive their income in the same way, have the same access to the means of production. Doing it on the internet doesn't change anything.

        Thanks for the hornyness accusation, but it's false. Nothing I've said has been a defense of her. It's been a generalized defense of podcasting.

        Is Marxism a joke to you? Bold take.
