This is the most horrendous misunderstanding, deliberate twisting of words, and just plain fucking stupid video I’ve ever seen. It’s so wrong in so many fucking places, genuinely impossible for me to stop watching. Let me know what you think

for some reason this came up on my YouTube recommended

    it’s TIK, of course it’s going to be completely unhinged reactionary idiocy.

    dude started his youtube career by carefully reading troop dispositions and casualty figures from real historical works on ww2.

    he then pivoted to “nazis were left wing actually” and then just kept doubling down.

      I didn’t know this guy existed, this is the first I’m hearing of him

      But there was seriously the dumbest shit ever said in that video. Dialectical materialism apparently was “created by Marx” to progress humanity towards our true self, God. He took Hegels idea of the absolute idea and like twisted it into being the exact same thing as Marxism and then somehow made Stalin sound like he was advocating for us to go BACK to primitive communism… like there was just so much misunderstanding (or deliberate lying, more likely)

        TIK on military issues is great

        TIK on political issues is a right wing libertarian with all the associated shitty takes.

        (or deliberate lying, more likely)

        He basically repeated the old ‘mud pies’ meme in response to the labor theory of value… in a video that selectively quoted from Capital. He is definitely lying, because anybody who has read the very first chapter of Capital would understand that not everything can become valuable simply by putting effort into it. That is not the labour theory of value.
