Its me!
Occasionally making videos from a Socialist/Communist/Anarchist perspective whenever I feel like it.
Old school left-tube before it was cool.

Hello, thanks for baring with me for so long.
I know it's always bad luck to say I've got something else coming but yeah, I've got something coming and will hopefully be releasing it in a week or so.
Be ready for it...

Hello! In terms of future videos I thought I'd just clue you in.
I have already in the works a companion video on the Kronstadt revolt, as I feel its the topic I have most interest in and did the most research on, and more could be said about it. Expect it on the 18th of March.

After that I have a much shorter video going over the 'On Authority' argument in a more visual style, so that should be good.
Making videos takes a lot of work and releasing them is quite a struggle mentally with all the eyes watching you, so I feel after this I'm going to rest for my own sake.

I won't make too many promises for after that, but generally speaking I've got in the works a script going over potential reasons for why people leave Anarchism. Whilst I feel I should take a step back from 'responding to' videos, there is a legendary Marxist author of sorts of which I feel I need to say some words to, as from a personal perspective at the bare minimum I felt he did a lot of damage to my political growth, though everybody seems to love him, IYKYK.

Well there we have it folks, the greatest video of mine you'll (probably) never see!
I was working on a video talking in depth about the problems with electoral politics and voting. However, in a few weeks I will be undertaking a massive trek across Europe that could potentially last months on end. I've had a rough few years and decided to quit my job, pack up everything into storage and just wander across the continent whilst I still can.
Sadly I left this video too late in the pipeline, and I just don't have the time, mental capacity or editing experience to be able to finish it in time. Who knows, I may end up finishing it off at some point next year, but I feel like it might have gotten dated by then. But we shall see.

If there is interest in it I will be updating people on my travels via community postings as I head on towards the Danube Delta as my finishing line.

To some of my new subscribers and others who are confused, since I noticed this old video of mine keeps getting reuploaded let me explain.
In 2019 I had the 'fantastic' idea of making a video 'demystifying' the DDR. What I ended up doing was effectively making an apologia for the country, even defending the creation of the Berlin Wall, using very flimsy evidence, using the 'most former DDR citizens want it back' line, or that growth was higher in the east. (Reasons for Nostalgia are VERY complex and growth is usually higher in LED countries respectively)
I took it down a few months later because I realised I had effectively made a propaganda video and not anything of good introspection.
Its possible to make a video explaining the DDR without saying it was living hell, but that wasn't what was accomplished here. Narrative is important. There's a big difference between someone like maybe J Arch Getty and Grover Furr, one is explaining the nuance to the equation in a way that is productive, the other is simply seeing what happened and trying to fit history to make it work for him.
I haven't actually watched the video in a long time so I don't remember everything I said, it's cringe to look back on.

Well all you subscribers who stuck around will be interested to know that I am a man of great lies when it comes to saying I'm leaving YouTube forever...
Don't expect regular videos or think this as 'I'm Back!" but if I feel something needs saying I will dip in here and there.
