Just watched his inauguration speech. He talked about economic equality and even invoked the 99% vs 1% argument :ohmy:
I'm surprised no one here has claimed him a victory yet.

their "analysis" of kshama sawant in the episode is also appalling. worse than anything you'd get here.

Ugh, I'm 6 minutes in and already want to bludgeon them based entirely on their posh voices.

OMG Aaron Bastani is such a twat.
They are basically just 20-something former southern university, middle class, self-proclaimed experts on social movements. Basically faux-intellectuals. They seem to be a new breed in British 'left' politics.

I tweeted the correction to him and he favourited it! How dare he accept my criticism so graciously!

they're everything tat says (though not just any old university graduates - oxford graduates no less), but their big marketing thing is that they're "ultraleft" / "anarchists" / "full communists". in with the libcom lot i think, since libcom has fully degenerated.
of course, it's all form and no content. there's nothing in their actual politics that separates them from left-wing labour party supporters, and they'll end up in the labour party once they have some books out on verso and a nice job out of radical posturing.

Well that was fucking dire.
These Londoncentric, Goldsmiths/LSE/Oxford "intellectuals" will be the first against the walls.

"America moves left: and it's not just the election of Obama" :laugh:
This just goes to show how reactionary the term 'leftism' is. Nothing but a cloak for capitalism nowadays.

OMG Aaron Bastani is such a twat.
He really is. Celebrating MoveOn and DailyKos and demanding a British Howard Dean? What the fuck is this wanker doing? :confused:
