People shouldn't forget that Liam pushed Ody out of art school/college.
He ruined someone's life chances to create his own fapping material.
3 years lost and only paid him 6k.
If I remember correctly Ody had some form of autsim and Liam likely used it to manipulate him to do his bidding. View attachment 1932610
Marx is not respected because he started communism. He is respected because of how well he analyses capitalism and offers communism as an evolution of capitalism (which in turn started as a means to better the lives of peasants in medieval times).
Marx was an entitled mooch who lived of the wealth of his well to do friends. He was brilliant but his analysis was flawed and his theory was fantasy. He predicted communism as an inevitability organically rising from the working class prolatariat not the imposed system that has been instituted by upper middle class grievance merchants in various forms to disastrous results.
Communism isn't an evolution of anything. It's a failed theory. Evolution is a naturally occurring progression not a revolution. Marx presented his theory as evolution but in practice communism has always been an artificial system imposed by a small revolutionary minority, like the Bolsheviks, with disastrous results.
When something evolves it's an adaptation that retains the advantages of the prior iteration while manifesting advantageous improvements. Communism proposes to throw out everything that doesn't work AND everything that does work in favor of a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow which will be accessed by riding unicorns over it.
Capitalism is an evolution of mercantilism which is an evolution from feudalism. People who know a small amount about economics know this. Russia never had capitalism before the revolution. Russia was a feudal state with limited mercantilism. China was not capitalist. Korea wasn't. Cambodia wasn't.
What occurred in these shit shows was not evolution from capitalism. It was a tragic failure to evolve toward capitalism. Since then all of these states have adopted some capitalism to avoid a repeat of previous communism induced mass starvation. Except Korea. They've doubled down on starvation since they stopped getting Russian aid in the 90's.
Others, who know nothing, spew talking points learned from Twitter commies and pose like they know or understand economics.
Has any communist ever read the criticisms of Marxist theory and actually absorbed the material?
Doubtful it seems that the only cure for socialist thinking is the kind of dose of reality Thomas Sowell needed to experience in real life to understand it's nonsensical.
You may see some retarder twatter commies typing stupid stuff all day, but in reality a lot of communists are understanding how capitalism works way better, probably because they have zero illusions, unlike some of the pro capitalists out there.
People who are "pro-capitalist" generally understand the historical trend of communist states toward tyranny, death camps and mass starvation.
Communism fails to account for multiple social and economic realities like how humans organize in hierarchies as a necessary survival adaptation and the abject failure of price controls as a way to create equality.
Smart socialist economists avoid talking about prices because they know they have exactly zero answers for how to replace market driven prices with anything that works.
what you see on youtube is either shills taking advantage of said people or these people drinking so much of the koolaid they become the source (Liam Gray is a great example).

Liam Gray is a complete moron and an unwitting crypto-socialist. He's been trying to turn CG into his vision of a workers paradise from "go".
He thinks being a good capitalist requires top down control and collectivist behavior.
I agree with most of what you say. I never, for instance, included that communism failed because it was imposed in non-industrial capitalist countries or the complexity of a state-owned industry being inefficient.
|I am more for a Nordic country social walfare state than a soviet style communist regime due to what you mentioned.
Still, my point was that a lot of older commies do get how the market works and many culture warriors fail to go further than "muh capitalism, me good capitalist, peopl gief money".
Some CGers (like @FROG, John of the Rice and @NasserRabadi13) do get how to deliver a product successfully and probably make a product, despite their levels of cowness. YBZ used to, but he is self-sabotaging himself constantly.
Last year, Yellow Flash was looking for a manga artist, and I said I knew of this dude named Ody whose work looked pretty good. YF asked if I could put them in contact, and so I sent Ody a DM telling him that a work opportunity awaited, and he should DM Yellow Flash.
Those DMs ended up being passed around by Liam and his goons, as though I’d crossed a line, and obviously Ody shared them. Annoying.
So this makes the second time this month that a drama based CGer came to me for the sole purpose of amplifying their complaints about their own project, Martina being the first. Who’s next?

The Nordic model has lower corporate taxes and regulatory burdens than present day America.
It's not socialism.
A lot of "democratic socialists" point to the Nordic model like they want to follow it but advocate for policies in line with Venezuela's Chavez/Maduro.
It's a shell game leftists fall for and capitalists recognize immediately.
I'd be happy to adopt Nordic economic policy so long as we hold off with the entitlements until the national debt is payed off in full.
Older commies refuse to understand prices, market balance or the nature of incentives and the unintended consequences of trying to engineer them for "equity".
Democratic socialists seek ever increasing big government and socio/economic control as means to garner wealth and power without contributing to it's creation.

Months ago I joked here that Liam pays his artist in children's toys and Liam responded on a stream with something about how well he pays Ody. I wish I could revisit that but damned if I go looking for it in that asylum.
P.S. the Nordic model only works because its funded with their excess oil exports. It's a fairly recent experiment they're trying and its not going to last even with the oil. The cracks are already showing.

On one hand, I feel sorry for the dude. He's obviously fucking talented, and is it confirmed he's autistic? I'm not rooting against this kid to find some sort of work that will pan out better than fucking around with Liam Gray, maybe shit will be better for him going forward.
But on the other hand? He was warned. Multiple times. Liam's retardation was very public, and the worst and lulzy shit was more often than not out of Liam's own dumb fucking mouth on a stream. If you're so autistic that you can't pick up on bullshit when someone consistently brags about taking on crack heads in his neighborhood? Don't know what else to tell you, aside from what Newman's Own already said:

You vouch for these people. You put them on your streams, you legitimize them.
This is a bloody kid you're talking too, someone who Liam convinced to dump his education to draw his comic. Do you honestly think big-name EVS giving Liam his stamp-of-approval did nothing to help sway the poor lads decision.
You really do need to take a little bit of responsibility.
