What I find really interesting is that this guy is basically a liberal, yet he has the decency to question the propaganda and breaks the basics down very well.

I saw this video and read his text about the booner truth narrative.
I think the video is deceivingly positive but this guy seems to me like either a fascist or a right deviationist of sorts.
The problem with this is the pattern. The alt right in germany is also strictly going the anti imperialist route and since the left is simping the usa, the alt right gets huge influx.
If you confront leftists about it, they are totally brainwashed by western media.
And I think that is the problem. The right being a pro capital movement in its core, they are trying to play all sides to come out on top.
We need a better communist pipeline. This is not going to work imo. Same with the “maga communists”. They are what happens when there is no stringent leftist movement and the only " left" is pro imperialist soc dems.
The rebranding of Stalin as this homophobic dudebro conservative “hard man making hard choices, while triggering the libs but in a non-chud way” - mind you which is even done inside modern russia & georgia - has been absolutely beneficial to crowd of mostly (white) men that never grew out of their edgy 4chan phase and refuse to dismantle their various isms because its all just “identity politics” (never mind that libs appropriate and deformed it from socialists in the first place)
Its basically capitulation to willingly accept the narratives of the ruling class.
Makes me think of exactly what Haz does. Seems like that clown’s favorite thing about Stalin was his homophobia.
Yeah they see him as this ultimate machismo figure. Tito & Fidel are also popular for this reason with these types of “leftists”.
Even though Castro actually apologized for his horrible treatment of LGBT people and changed course later in his life.
I watched a couple of his other videos some time ago. I’m not really sure where he lies politically, but now that you mentioned it, I checked some of his video titles, and he does seem to be alt-right.
Definitely agree with your point. Every right-wing surge in Europe is a result of the failures of the left. I see it in my country too. Our major left party (which also happens to be communist, at least on paper) has been diluting itself hard ever since the 90s. When the economic crisis occured in 2007 (along with some other issues that got compounded due to the crisis), the party kept trying to “behave in a civil and responsible manner” as they put it. Meanwhile, a newly-formed fascist party started going hard with “revolutionary” speech, and they very quickly grew in numbers enough to make the left party lose seats. This was a direct result of the fascists gaining votes among the disgruntled population, and a lot of party-members becoming inactive as they grew more and more disillusioned. Finally, the party has had a couple of shock election results these past couple of years, and they are starting to change their approach to communication and messaging. Although internally, they seem to still think that trying to appeal to right-wing and centrist voters is more viable than convincing their actual target audience from joining their cause.
