Yes, folks who base their entire personality on one specific brand of socialism based on one book written in 1993 by someone nobody has ever heard of but is apparently THE MOST IMPORTANT SOCIALIST WRITER IN HISTORY are problematic and need to stop

Really? The website just seems like a fanclub for the standard figures of western marxism and then capitalist realism etcetera. You see this same group of french philosophers promoted in almost every western left space from tumblr to twitter to group chats like tg/discord

Is there anything you're thinking of in particular there?
