    The last few years of patsocism evolving show this is correct. I made the observation in 2022 already; all they have to show for their supposed vanguard strand of marxism is twitch streamers and twitter accounts. Social-democrats have done it already and they do it better on breadtube.

    2 years later, and 4-5 years of patsocism existing, and they are only entrenching themselves further in this dead-end (well, organizational dead-end; I’m sure it pays off quite well for their bank accounts). Their fans are mostly 13-15 year olds, and patsocs are now further diluting marxism, further vulgarizing it so that it only looks a certain way, regardless of context or deeper meaning. They take quotes and excerpts out of context, carefully cropping the parts that precede or follow it, to present a certain reading of marxism that is simply about buzzwords. It’s only about hitting the right words for them.

      This sort of analysis makes me think they’re more of an OP than just grifters. As leftist thought becomes more prevalent, it makes sense that the powers that be would want to muddy the waters as much as possible and turn socialism into yet another empty lifestyle bought and sold by capitalism.

        Hinkle is almost certainly an op. Larouche himself was likely a fed – he liked to deride his opponents as feds, but almost assuredly had contracts with the CIA and FBI to provide them with intel. The Schiller institute was good at doing that in the 70s-90s.

        Hinkle has a strange public upbringing; he was close to some political figures (especially Tulsi Gabbard, who is the commander of a battalion in the US Army Civil Affairs & Psychological Operations) as a senior in high school. Keep in mind he’s only 24 today.

        Next he emerges and gets boosted not once, but twice by the Zionist entity, each them getting him tons of followers. His entire brand is about repeating what others have said, stealing their words and repackaging them as his own analysis or news. I can’t count the number of tweets he’s stolen from other people lol.

        There’s more to it but I don’t remember all of it, there’s an account on Twitter that tracks him pretty consistently: https://twitter.com/jonnysocialism
