Derick Varn (Who runs the podcast channel "Varn Vlog") to discuss the complicated, bizarre history of certain tendencies on the contemporary Western left, such as neo-Stalinism, Dengism, old and new Maoism, Trotskyism, and "MAGA Communism." We also discuss the history of people on the left shifting to the right, Varn's own political journey from right to left, and his disagreements with different leftist groups like the Platypus Affiliated Society. 0:00 MAGA Communism Episode Sneak Peak 3:18 Guest Introduction 5:30 Varn's Political Journey: From Right to Left1 8:18 Western Trotskyism 29:47 Occupy Movement and Call-Out Culture 38:40 Mark Fisher and the Vampire Castle Debate 53:38 Pete Buttigieg's Marxist Dad 56:29 The Trotskyist to Conservative Pipeline 01:15:53 The Role of the CIA in Academic Marxism01:24:09 Contradictions in Marxism-Leninism 01:35:37 Reflections on the American Revolution Read more with Speechify: https://speechify.com/?source=fb-for-mobile&via=1Dime Follow me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/1DimeOfficial Support 1Dime on Patreon to get extra exclusive content.
