One note on Marx Madness that I just found out: there is a really hot take on S1 Ep14 about the internment of Uyghurs in Xinjiang, namely that they’re made up.
This is one blindspot a lot of Western Marxists have, and I think it is because of how disenchanted we are with Western media and how alluring an ascendant communist China sounds. I don’t think it invalidates their other analysis, but it was a real cringe moment.
