Thanks for the read and the interesting take, Jaime! But idk how anyone can read that resignation or watch any of his interviews, especially recently, and not see that he’s parading around the same right-wing tropes as Ben Shapiro or Steven Crowder, both of whose shows he was recently on, adding to his right-wing credibility and ethos.

As far as the postmodern neomarxism term he coined, it’s an oxymoron and ridiculous. Contemporary postmodernism and postmodernism in general, I’m far from an expert on, but my take is there is an ahistorical focus on identity and policing language because it is easier than addressing material needs or fixing large problems and allows politicians and people in power to front like their progressive just because they use the “woke language” when in reality they’re getting money from Goldman Sachs, just like the right-wing and pursing more or less the same REGRESSIVE economic policies. As you said, it isn’t really even left-wing. It is a convenient tool for them to be able to tweet and keep the attention on identity politics and distract from their corruption and inaction on real issues of wages, healthcare, war, campaign finance, taxes, etc. It’s not a secret group of “neomarxists” trying to “undermine the west.”

Again, thanks for the read and thoughts.
