1. Many libertarians have the same opinions as us on non-economic foreign policies of the West (seeing through “human rights” claims as hypocrisy to justify war that is waged for resources and geographical control, what coups/assassinations/terrorists are ClA ops, etc.) because these are all state activities and they are anti-state, at least in the current form in the West

  2. Blumenthal’s opinions on the situation of vaccines in USA is very libertarian

  3. Clearly not a communist given he has never spoken positively about any AES and never explicitly supported enemies of the West

Yea idk that’s all I got lol

    If Max is vaccinated, I would find that hypocritical of him.

    Max Blumenthal has repeatedly described COVID-19 lockdowns as being ineffective, mask mandates as being ineffective and the vaccines as being either ineffective or shams.

    There is an entire world of difference between bringing attention to and criticism of Pharmaceutical corporations’ greedy and exploitative practices, strong-arming of the Global South and wealthy manipulative CEO’s versus saying that lockdowns are ineffective or that the vaccines are vials of poison.

    Especially considering that the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are very similar to the Sputnik and Chinese and Cuban vaccines and that while lockdowns suck, they mitigate spread and deaths of COVID-19.

    Max Blumenthal siding with racist and capitalist bootlicking cracka ass truckers isn’t pragmatism or toleration of reactionary elements for a greater cause, its siding with those who refuse to wear masks or be considerate of others while they assault and put the lives of people of color in danger so Blumenthal can profit.
