Far left politics is totally not about orgy porgy, doing drugs and escaping reality becoming a junkie:


It's not the first time zero books has brought up this topic:


The Distributist shows up in the comments with some realtalk:

This is hilarious. Everyone is talking about "expanding their mind", but then retreat to the most predictable far-left boomer take.

Even setting aside that "acid communism" itself is just a rerun of the 1960s psychedelic movement. The parts of this talk that don't read like a Timothy Leary copy-pasta, are still stale as feck because they rely on the ridiculous pollyanna-ish (dare I say "boomer") view that one can simultaneous occupy a "radical" position while still being perceived as a "tolerant moderate" in terms of bourgeois morality. Gentlemen, this may have played in the 70s, but not today.

The fact remains that the "humanitarian" "socialist" and the rest of the "radical but not too radical" left positions have today been so thoroughly embraced by the neo-liberal capital-owning establishment that the proposition that they are "radical" is farcical even for people who identify as leftists. Today the bank owners, techno-capitalists, and mainstream media masters consider the far-right to be the biggest threat to their bottom line, whereas they consider "socialists" to be either amusing clowns or a stop-gap for cementing their dominant grip on power (this time justifying their positions as "experts" and not "owners"). For evidence of this, simply look at how the neo-liberal, uber-capitalist Economist magazine took on Steve Bannon versus the queen of "breadtube", ContraPoints. These days there is hardly a door a moderate socialist can push on that isn't being opened already by men with money and power.

The only radical alternative remaining for the left is to go the full-monty and embrace Stalin, Mao, and Trotsky and state that you want "revolution" whatever blood bath might be necessary. This, I think, is the more honest approach to radicalism, however, it seems that very few on the left are interested in honestly pursuing it. In short, if you are radical, there is no non-hypocritical way to cooperate with liberal-corporate censorship and de-platforming campaigns. There is also no non-hypocritical way to morally grandstand against the right's use of authoritarian authors and imagery WHEN YOU YOURSELF DO IT. Again, perhaps previous generations of leftists could get away with this double standard. My impression is that this isn't working anymore.

You have is a hard decision before you: be the "tolerant moderate reformer" or the "revolutionary radical". I understand that this is a tough choice for many older leftists. But you can't eat your cake and have it too, no matter how much acid you drop.


Hint: Look up a playlist on Youtube titled "Manufacturing the Deadhead". Fun stuff.

I only found stuff about nuclear war and zelda, just give me a damn link.

Edit to avoid double posting: I'm 16 minutes into that "Tactics of the Acid Left" video and I honestly have no idea what any of them are trying to say, they keep wildly gesturing about boundaries and saying "and here's another point" without having made a point in the first place. I think that if I continue I will be driven mad and am thus forced to stop. I found an article that actually explains what "Acid Communism" is and it's basically some random commie non-thing about imaging a new kind of future.

This comment:

The Big Breadtubers you mention - What do they actually stand for? None of them has ever given a firm path forward based on something to bring about change. I don't care if I disagree with it (See Bernie) but I can respect somebody who talks Anti-Capitalism but has some sort of path forward.

But big Breadtubers stand for *nothing at all*. They talk big about Anti-Capitalism and give a bunch of winks and nods on all video but they're basically just LARPing or memeing at being Anarchists or Anti-Capitalist but when do they ever do calls to action? When do they discuss tactics? Outline ideology clearly as a path forward? The most any of them has done is Harris with the fundraiser for Mermaids but even then that seemed to be a one off thing based on a video he did and then it was back to videogames while the world continues to crumble all around him.

And as I said on Twitter Oliver even went so far as to state, clearly and unequivocally, that he stands for nothing and that his channel is just about him having fun with his friend doing the content he feels like doing. He even reinforced it saying how he rather not talk about important current topics to avoid getting on a no flight list or having issues finding employment (Presumably at some sort of corporation)

So if you are rich but you stand for something, even if you fail or are misguided, you are at least standing for something. Breadtubers are just using Leftist looking words and concepts without anything concrete at all to maintain a fairly decent bourgeois lifestyle so no, I disagree heavily on giving them a pass.


They also insist that leftwing infighting is someone else's fault and that if it weren't for outside corrupting influences these far leftists are born immaculate and perfect, which classic cultic "everyone is out to get us/trust no one" thinking:

KF IS COINTELPRO! Dude @CIA Nigger you are ruining everything by openly admitting your agency association.

The whole "acid communism" thing is pretty dumb to begin with, but you got the essence of it. Basically, it's the idea that our fundamental concept of what the future will be (both short and long-term) is based on a capitalist framework. Because of this, communists looking toward the future must conceive of new futures wherein communism could thrive.

Core to the idea is this concept called "Capitalist Realism", which is essentially the idea that we're incapable of properly conceiving of a society that isn't fundamentally capitalist, because social and cultural pressures have rigidly enforced the concept that society only functions under a capitalist framework. One could argue that's because a communist framework isn't really capable of working, which is why we can't properly conceive of it. The guy who came up with "Capitalist Realism", Mark Fisher, however, came up with the idea of saying that were ways of conceiving of it, we just hadn't come up with them yet, then had the good sense to die before having to explain any more. That's "Acid Communism".

I'm super simplifying this, but hopefully that explanation makes sense.

The whole thing is super vague and hand-wavy, which is why any explanation of it by people that actually buy into this stuff tends to be really vague and hand-wavy; it's really little more than telling someone "think better!" then walking away, believing you have done a good deed.

This is the epitome of Armchair Revolutionary thinking. Spout radical nonsense and believe yourself to be doing the world a huge favor unlike anybody who doesn't share your views.
 
It's not really modern, Marx or hell, Rousseau, were exactly those types. It's why they didn't get along with anybody for long.

Although perhaps ironically, unlike all these modern "journalists" on Twitter/YouTube/etc., Marx actually did work as a journalist for a while. His American Civil War reporting was considered quality gumshoe type stuff at the time. Then his Patreon ("Karl is creating revolutionary science") took off and he didn't have to work anymore.
 
Quinton Reviews, the lowest wheatcalf on the totem is assmad at Mooler but is still too much of a bitch to confront him.

Lottie Blix, anarchist art hoe extraordinaire was a guest on the infamous BadBunny stream where she attacks her audience for not donating and some people have not realized they aren't the same person. By the way, is her birthday.

Jim Goad appeared on some no-name BreadTuber's stream to debate whether or not he's a "white supremacist":

>Thinking people who make shitty youtube vids are improving Leftism and making the farms out to be some sort of large enough threat to the public that the US govt needs to personally shut it down

Breadtube fans really are the Leftist version of the Reactionary/Anti-SJW youtube 'community'.
