My lingering feeling that he sucks/is an op is growing. I’ve long figured that nobody truly subversive would be getting published by the BBC. The majority of his latest work is a borderline anti communist hit piece tbh.

I mean, even Hypernormalization included a whole bunch of social critiques during the late USSR.
The whole thing with “The Zone” is rather critical of the CPSU at its core.
Most self-identified leftists have critiques of the late USSR and the revisionist CPSU as well though, I think that’s more compatible with our worldview than stating things like “the Chinese revolution hadn’t actually done anything to change the old structures of power in China” :agony-turbo:
