I saw an interview with Prof Cornel West on AJE on Saturday. West is running for US President as candidate for a RedBrown front, which is seemingly now joining with US Greens. Less said about them the better.

Anyway, the interview was the usual platitudes & intellectual vacuity that I have come to expect from a Philosopher I once kinda admired.

He threw out the usual rubbish about #NATO expansion, which always boils my piss.

The problem with these authoritarian leftists is that they – whether it was hands off Syria or Russia & China (as at the Rosa Luxemburg Conference of the Young World 2022) – put states at the centre of the political analysis and not the oppressed groups of the respective societies".
