I mistakenly thought he was a total lib from skimming Twitter discourse but always figured he’s an ok guy bc he seems to be amused by one of those niche micro left accounts “impersonating” him
He is maybe somewhat more radical than a succdem at best. I just think it's pretty funny when he's right, or at least when he winds up looking good in hindsight.
Didnt't he get really mad about his writers trying to unionize a few years back or am I confusing him with someone else?
I am hearing that that situation was very misrepresented and he's fine
That's him. Libertarian socialist who got mad at the writers for his magazine trying organize because he believes the magazine needs an editorial line guided by his vision.
Being a magazine editor is the anarchist to Blanquist "I will make Stalin look like an anarchist" pipeline.
They were already unionized; they wanted to make the magazine a co-op and he wanted to keep ownership
Nah he’s a total Jacobin lib. One correct take on a Democrat isn’t sufficient to make them correct
