His pinned tweet:
The egalitarian values underlying socialist politics are incompatible with social conservatism. But they don't entail taking maximalist left-coded positions on every issue or incident that people draw culture-war battle lines over. You can just think stuff through as it comes up.
I give him like 5 years before he's openly right-wing.
where did the left suddenly go too far for you mr. burgis?
"Social democracy is objectively the moderate wing of fascism."
Neocon in disguise
Idk I think Fanon is pretty important for understanding the modern world. Don't see why you wouldn't read both

Incorrect. What we should do as principled Marxists is skim a single text (or watch a youtube summary of it) and then refuse to read anything else, and build our entire identity around our one True Correct book of socialist theory, as it proves our superiority to all others.
Marx: the immortal science
Fanon: idpol
Update, I just found a sketch of young Marx and found out his friends called him "the Moor".
Marx is cancelled and my political hero is now Murray Rothbard.
Ben is an academic that tries to be an influencer, and therefore is not worth listenting to wrt to his leftism

Never read anything written past 1826
Marxism was always meant to be dogmatic and closed-minded
Girondin Magazine
Fanon wrote like 3 books. You can easily read Marx and Fanon.
God fucking dammit, why did Michael Brooks have to die? Now I have watch the people in his orbit fly off into the most bonkers bullshit I've ever seen
Repurposing something I wrote earlier:
Ben Burgis is a hack. He, along with Douglas Lain, used to be apart of Zero Books and made Youtube videos for that publishing house’s channel. They’re both Left Coms who complain about cancel culture and political correctness (Burgis was even on Rogan). They even made a few videos bashing Michael Parenti that appear to have been deleted from the Zero Books channel. [It looks like Lain reuploaded one of them onto his channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XI57956Ln5M] Even one of Lain’s videos is an interview with Glenn Greenwald with a thumbnail that says “Flashback: Glenn Greenwald is not your enemy”, while Burgis actually released a book with the title, "Canceling Comedians While The World Burns".
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
