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.

disclaimer for FinnishBolshevik
It’s good to add these disclaimers so people aren’t blindsided finding this out from other sources. I would still say this is a case where we need to separate the work from the personal life of the author as there really is nothing else like his content out there, not on the topics he covers and not in that kind of depth which unfortunately makes this content an invaluable learning resource. I wish more channels would make those kinds of videos. Hakim used to but lately his videos have gotten more shallow/general and less academic/historical, which is not necessarily a bad thing, he’s just trying to reach a different target audience, one that is less well versed in Marxist theory and history. And that is important too, we need to build mass appeal, but for those of us who have already been studying Marxism-Leninism for some time it’s sort of preaching to the choir… i miss the historical deep dives.
Being able to look past these things is good. I don’t like mentioning this whenever his channel is suggested but I would have wanted others to do the same
That’s a long list of links. Which one are you referring to?
the link should have led to a specific section (
#others-1), but you can just search “finnish”The reddit post is deleted but I’m assuming it was an upload of the chat?
Oh wow, that’s some horrible shit. Unfortunately, his channel is still pretty good for Marxist content and analysis of Marxist literature. But I’m not so sure about recommending him anymore. Do we know if that is indeed him?
I can’t prove whether or not it’s been edited, no
Balkan Odyssey is a weird (weird in the idk what to think about them sense) one imo. They’ve got some good videos but I remember watching their “What do we do with former socialism” video and they had some bad opinions. The one I remember off the top of my head was that they said
“Marxists-Leninists, or Stalinists, for the lack of a better term […]”
His channel is a documentation of his development from lib nationalist to communist, generally pretty good.
