A question like ‘Did US intelligence-sharing with Ukraine cross a line?’ forgets the fact that it was Russia that crossed the line – by invading Ukraine

    Oh my god, now I know why Vice was pumping this dude. He says close to nothing and just gets you spun up in sophistry.

      I figured that out when he said Lenin wasn’t a Marxist. Wtf do you think he was then? I kinda like his voice and he’s interesting to listen to, but he’s so caught up in “modern philosophy” that he gets up his own ass and winds up sounding stupid. I think if he had someone there with him to sorta ground him in reality then he’d make more sense but he’s full to the brim with polemics and sophistry.

        Wow, I never knew he said that. I couldn’t ever listen to him for more than 5 minutes.

            I could spend a whole 20 minutes just talking about how utterly nonsense all of this was. He denigrates Lenin because he didn’t have a “formula” of what the world would exactly look out as his theory played out. Surprisingly, this is a bit hard to do when the average person only lives for like 60 - 80 years and not centuries wtf??? The reason it’s called theory is because it’s…fuck nvm. This guy makes head hurty 🥴
