Unfortunately I don’t think this guy is just an online weirdo. He goes on RT. He goes on Chinese TV. He goes to Trump rallies and interviews people. His political tendencies are Larouchite and these quasi-communist reactionaries have existed in American politics for decades. He’s a symptom of a larger problem, which is reactionary encirclement and distortion of revolutionary talking points.
Yup. The USA has been so right wing and propagandized in recent decades that people like him weren’t even necessary, but I would expect more of this as neoliberalism breaks down.

We should especially heed this part. We should always remember that Fascist ideologues like Mussolini and Sorel used revolutionary sounding language to push for reinforcement of the capitalist power structure under the aegis of a militarized nation state.
and it’s especially interesting that Mussolini was revealed to be on the payroll of British Intelligence during his rise to power. So Italian fascism seems to have been a deliberate British “psy op” to kill Italian Socialism in its cradle. Fascism at its core was bankrolled by Anglo-American capitalists and government officials until they needed to do an about face and “save the world” from the monster they had created by assisting the USSR.
