I don’t know about you, but saying that Marxists should prioritize dismantling their own country’s bourgeoisie over global imperialism seems a bit ultra-leftist

Also a bit weird that they didn’t talk about Donbass

    This one? I haven’t watched it yet, but I’ve never seen any signs of him being ultra-leftist before I watched it and didn’t notice him saying anything about Russian “imperialism” (although I might’ve missed it)
