He loves to say perrrmanent revolution and (imo) downplays the roles of Lenin and especially Stalin before and during the October revolution, really seems intent on making Trotsky the protagonist, doesn’t really deal with Lenin’s writings or theories, and makes it seem like Marx formulated the original labor theory of value, but other than that it gives a decent account of the sequence of events and the interconnected movements that gave rise to the revolution. I also felt like he did a good job of explaining the motivations and necessity of the Bolshevik takeover, mainly the provisional government continuing to drag the country through WWI. I might give it another listen, see if I feel the same way about it.

Badass song
Trying to come up with a word to describe what it’s doing. Strawmanjacketing?
Actually I just realized I was thinking of Right In Two
Regardless, you’ve just confirmed that you are disgusting. No, I do not take any thrills from watching the slaughter in Ukraine. You’ve told on yourself.
You’ve misunderstood that song. You’re not one of the angels on the sidelines, you’re no angel.
You’re disgusting
Biden has sorta done an okay job supporting Ukraine with military aid, which I also support
You support a fascist coup regime

You support genocide
