Going a bit too far to call him more of a reactionary than a leftist.
Doesn't know shit about theory or what he actually means by socialism, and has all this in his history. Not everything in that post is bad, but a lot of it is. Vaush is a reactionary sex pest that deserves no quarter in this community.
Again you're going too far, you can criticize someone without acting like they've never read anything about socialism and is sexually abusive to anyone he meets.
If you actually look up the context to most of this stuff, which you forced me to do, it's really not as yikesy as you would think.

Watch the stream clips. I even have one posted on my profile. He has no place here. He simps for the CIA, he isn't a leftist.
I don't think stream clips that are cut to show the opposite of the opinion he was expressing are helpful, he's done plenty of actual bad shit like sexual harassment and saying slurs that we can criticize him for.
Taking someone saying, "you can come up with a hypothetical situation where [bad thing] would result in more good than harm, but it's still bad because of x, y, and z reasons." And cutting it to them saying "[bad thing] would result in more good than harm" just gives people ground to defend him.
I call him out as a sex pest in other comments.
Also, CIA intervention has pretty much never made anything better. Afghanistan was actually doing pretty well before the CIA militarized them against the communists.
