the strasserism thing is imo best summarised as people on the left wanting to shut down non-liberal objections to their policy by calling people nazis in a slightly more sophisticated manner. it's really stupid imo - you see some on the other side still rattling social fascist sabers in a weird kind of symmetry, but effectively it's about modern leftism having a ton of sixty-eighter new left neuroses.

fwiw tinkzorg hasn't got a path ahead either, and his crowing about how he's now winning bears the mark of someone who's protesting too much, but he does put a finger on some important fissures on the left and some dogmas which are increasingly coming under strain, one of which is the solution to the national question under the auspices of global capitalism

It was a super popular term here like 2 years ago but faded out for some reason, unlike ratfuck which just won't go away

I think it came up a ton when Bernie didn't have a committed immigration policy and the sides on that just yelled strassrrist at each other

imo lf was harsher in general because it was literally fyad for politics, but this meant that anyone with thick enough skin could post as much as they wanted to regardless of how insane or fringe their ideas were. it was literally structured as a forum for making jokes and gloves-off fighting about ideology. it just so happened that the marxists were the best read and meanest of the bunch and now people think of it as a leftist forum. keep in mind that in the 2008 era actual marxism was considered fringe compared to today and would not have found a platform most other places, so it happened there alongside a bunch of other crazy poo poo and it owned

i would never run for office because i get into online pissing matches among many other things, no matter who is right or wrong isn't even the point

they're idiots fighting over the dumbest molehole imaginable

it doesn't look good for felix either but afaik he mostly streams twitch and has a podcast about nbc dramas so this probably won't impact him negatively at all

why give whoever is going to primary you the ammo

I can't imagine a normal person being driven away from Lee Carter because he was mad that somebody called his friend an "ugly pussy". It's a dumb fight for sure but I just don't see any consequences for anybody. They'll work it out eventually

Lee Carter beefing with podcast hosts actually makes him more popular with Virginians. Your average boomer voter sympathizes with wanting to yell at the guys in your stories and actually getting them to respond. The only thing they consider weird about him is that he does it on twitter and not facebook.

True, but it’s popular with exactly the same people who think calling someone an “ugly pussy” is extremely cool and alpha, so it’s at best zero sum in this case.

Lee Carter's internet feud with Felix Beiderman is exactly as embarrassing for Carter as Trump's internet feuds with Mika Brezenski or Greydon Carter are embarrassing for Trump. Even if as a state congressman Carter doesn't have anything better to do than track posts about him from relatively obscure internet personalities, he shouldn't reveal it.

Lazy Felix Beiderman of failing Chapo Trap House podcast and author of bad internet posts has a problem-his Carl Diggler character is no longer "hot"

It is necessary to develop a line of thought that combines wise nationalism, properly understood, with proletarian internationalism. Proletarian internationalism should be based on the nationalism of individual countries [...], between that properly understood nationalism and proletarian internationalism there can be no contradiction. Nationless cosmopolitanism, which denies national sentiment and the idea of the nation, doesn’t have anything in common with proletarian internationalism.

Basically, Lee thought it was basically guaranteed that if he won an election as a young socialist, he'd get to be a recurring guest on Chapo at least, Felix's new best friend at best. But that didn't happen and he's been upset about it ever since.
