I skimmed Kyle's new video on "Network", won't link it here because it's nearly two hours long and you don't need that in your lives.
The man does seem to be in a better place mentally, and I genuinely happy for him. However, it seems he is still suffering from the same kind of far-left thought reform he did before.
It truly is amusing to see some of his cognitive dissonance on display. He has a lengthy screed against online parasocial relationships where he acknowledges that news anchors had in fact parasocial relationships with their audience. But, he also laments the loss of the gatekeeping that network news and their anchors had. Consolidating the power of information in the hands of a few is the best way to stahp fasheesum, right?
Also he still seems to think that capitalism is the only system that can reduce people to mere commodities. Socialism has always been hyperfocused on the rights, dignity and freedom of the individual, amirite?
The most laughable thing is when he defends cancel culture as a perfectly good tool to regulate the internet, mocking our "fear of the masses." Kyle can't even imagine an internet mob crushing someone who isn't a content creator, or someone who did nothing wrong (despite myriad examples of just that). Then minutes later he admits he is afraid of his own audience and their slavish devotion. You know, among leftists that devotion can turn into hatred on the turn of a dime, right Kyle? You sit on the edge of a razor, but think you have enough good boy points to avoid blind mob justice.
If you read this Kyle, I am sincerely very glad you are less fucked up than when you were in an abusive relationship and terminally on twitter. But your opinions remain thoroughly, perversely wrong, despite your verbosity and performative emotion. Such is the life of a Marxist internet busker.
