Figured I could get the best recommendations here since most “breadtubers” seem to be fundamentally liberal, milquetoast socdem types. Especially interested in theory, etc. topics like that. The longer the video the better.

removedshott uses the W word completely unironically there, he just openly hates victimised women, which is truly appalling behaviour that should get him booted from any communist party.
Disclaimer: I don’t support prostitution although for different reasons, pasting below my comment about it from another thread:
I used to think this is simply, “sex workers are the ones carrying all the risk and harm, so only their opinion matters. sex worker organisations call for full decriminalisation. /thread”
Until I learned decriminalisation of sex work in the first world leads to increased human trafficking from the Global South: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0305750X12001453#s0045
To put it bluntly, brown women who would otherwise lead their normal lives, are kindapped and smuggled to be raped by white men, in large numbers, whenever a first world country decriminalises prostitution.
This works both ways - criminalising prostitution reduces human trafficking, as shown above in the case study.
People trafficked from the Global South are completely marginalised and poweless, they don’t have a voice. The voices we hear, calling for decriminalisation, are mostly from self employed Westerners. And while I genuinely do care about their right to safer work conditions, for me it doesn’t trump the right of brown women to not be kidnapped and raped by white men.
I feel the exact same way as you regarding sex work.
Yeah I agree the way he frames it and talks about betrays his actual reactionary feelings of disgust at sex workers (as well as trans people) which is why hes clearly a right-devionanist
He might have made some good contributions to breaking myths related to the USSR, but sometimes assholes make one good point, its important to be critical of everyone and not fall victim to cults of personality.
No one is worshipping removedshott. “Cults of personality” are a liberal concept. What matters is ruthless criticism of all that exists, ie evaluating all claims of any individual or organization critically. I’m not even a removedshott fan, I just heard he was decent and saw a couple decent videos. I have yet to do my own critical evaluation.
