I speak to the bête noire of Marxist commentary & nemesis of the dirtbag left, Aimee Terese about:

• Leaving the Left.
• Being "post-left" & the tyranny of political labels.
• Love for the little guy & the genius of small accounts.
• Being honest under weaponized dishonesty.
• Jordan Peterson, Steven Pinker & liberal "progress porn."
• "There are no more nazis or communists."
• Covert authoritarianism and the Right adopting enemy framing by default.
• Compulsory enjoyment & loving everyone (or else).
• Turning social dysfunction into GDP go BRRRRR.
• Climate change freaks & "the world will end in 12 years" millenarianism.
• Who is "the worker" in 2021?
• No real difference between market & state: State Capitalism gone global.
• Using individualism as a shield to ignore collective problems and reneging on our responsibility to each other.
• Indigenous rights in Australia and the tyranny of empty gestures.

Her recommended subversive thinker is Rosa Luxemburg.
