It is obvious. None of the Western nations have real socialism. Social democracies are bourgeois.

That sounds more than a little Fabian to me.
"The inevitably of gradualism". If we have a great enough quantity of reforms, then there will be a qualitative change. Social democracy will become socialism.

Hi Yugoslav this is really helpful for me. I didn’t realise that Marx said something about quantitative to qualitative change. This is a central focus of some research I am currently doing. I just stumbled upon the concept by accident and thought it was a good idea to make changes in this way, partly because I work with quantitative types but I am qualitative through and through. Could you give me some reference for your statement, a book, a chapter I need to read? Thanks a lot! Have a nice evening. Best wishes.

None of which goes the slightest way to demonstrate that you've a grasp on the politics you affect to hold nor that those politics are worth holding
Is this your best?

Am 100% sure and am not the only one who queries the honesty of the charlatan
There are several reasons why this isn't Phil.
Yugoslav's English is a little off, Phil's wasn't.
Yugoslav shys away from certain arguments, Phil would never do that.
Phil was playful and sometimes really horrible to certain posters, Yugoslav treats everyone as a homogenous liberal mass.
I see non of phil's signature arguments/ beliefs and he could never resist talking about them.
The clincher is that Phil explicitly rejects materialism while yugoslav explicitly embraces materialism.
Phil was never a Stalinist and it's conceivable that this is all a ruse, but I have never seen Phil argue something he doesn't believe (and yes he really does believe all has said over the years, including the witchy stuff). I think that would bore him. The ego is not shining through, and it just would.
There's an arrogance and ego that's been tapered to the new persona but some of the trademark talking points are still there. The posting times are similar to dwyer's.
Agreed that there's some inconsistency with subject matter and his silence on Trump is admirably restrained. But the phobic stuff is still there as is the tendency to lecture.
Imagine we'll find out eventually?
Yugoslav 's politics are (close to?) those of the Communist Party of Great Britain (Marxist-Leninist). The diehard hardcore (anti-revisionist) Stalinism plus the TERF & SWERF stances of Joti Brar and the nods towards conservativism. I think it's someone genuinely in that orbit and not a returning poster.
But they also don't really know the doctrine very well at all, so maybe it's someone in disguise. But I think that old time Stalinism will naturally degenerate over time without a Mao or a Hoxha as an authority and a viable political project. I'd expect someone from that milieu to be just a bit rubbish apart from anything else.

I thought your gotcha was very impressive but I know nothing about Marcuse, and had blithely assumed that the CIA stuff was wild conspiracy theorising. Should have googled, really. Presumably everyone who is versed in political history is well aware of his stint in the Office of Strategic Services, and any serious Marxist-Leninist raging against modern feminism would also have a grudge against the Frankfurt School.
So that particular piece of evidence doesn’t feel anything like as strong as it did. More generally, I’m never going to take your revenant detection as intrinsically reliable, because of the bizarre campaign you have waged against EoY.
As you say, we will find out eventually.

I don't really know Phil or any other banned poster well enough to have an opinion one way or another, but the poor English comes and goes. My guess it's someone trying (badly) to imitate a foreigner. Also someone who thinks they know what sort of things to say to yank people's chains here.
Oh, am certain of it
For sure. Am reasonably ok at guessing the wrong uns, but will gracious accept I got it wrong if it's not him.
