When it comes to intellectualism, we seem to be falling behind the liberals and the fascists. The right has R.Сам and probably a few others from the stagnant waters of the collegium. The center has Joe Rogan. Say what you will, but they're true intellectuals who come up with their own ideas without regard for orthodoxy. Who then, does the left have? Let's look at some candidates. Noam Chomsky Extremely accomplished philosopher with some very good ideas. Unfortunately, he believes that ideas should be practical or applicable. Sad! Verdict: Pseud Slavoj Zizek A classic schizo philosopher of the authleft Freudian-Lacanian flavor. Predictably, these tendencies limit his thinking, and his Diogenes-like eccentricities are just superficial. Verdict: Pseud Chapo Trap House Matt's hobbyhorse is the alienation caused by liberal individualism, but he reaps more benefits from it than most people by being an antisocial weirdo. Felix's mental faculties are primarily used for noticing types of guys. Will is too good-natured easygoing to be an intellectual. Amber wrote an article about how UBI is like being a 1950s housewife. Verdict: Pseuds Breadtube If you even consider the possibility that these theater-kid ideologues are intellectuals, you're lost. Verdict: Pseud beyond pseud. Super Pseud 2 Richard Wolff I don't know much about him yet but he seems cool. Verdict: TBD Jordan Peterson What's he doing here? I guess he snuck in because he was far-left as a student and his house is covered in Communist propaganda. Anyway, he did pretty good in that interview where the interviewer kept going "so what you're saying is...." But on the other hand, he adopted an all-meat diet because some people he doesn't like prefer all-plant diets. Verdict: Cannot Escape Pseuddom

It's kind of sad that the prominent Breadtube people have pivoted towards making theatrical comedy skits with leftist philosophy rather than philosophy videos with theatre bits to make them more engaging. I can't watch Philosophy Tube's or Contrapoints vidoes anymore.

Another thing I don't like about Breadtube or Leftist Podcasts is that there is no debate, and the hosts of these programs seem to do all they can to stifle it.

Cody Johnston Surprisingly rigorous analysis on his fake news show. He also used to be really funny and it still shines through sometimes. It's too bad he'll barely deviate from the party line and his tone is so obnoxious. He says "it's almost like" about once every 5 minutes, which should tell you everything you need to know. Verdict: Pseud

Worship of so-called intellectuals is pathetic liberal tendency to have accredited, 'qualified' parental figures teach you how to think OP. It is no better nor different from the brain dead Hillary fans saying "She's got the best resume! She's the most qualified" in 2016. We have to destroy every center of this poisoned way of thinking and exile every pundit and 'intellectual' if we hope to create a world where human life and human dignity are given the weight and respect they are owed. Also Zizek is daddy and I'd let him go to town on me.

Lefties' proclivities lead them to contract venereal diseases like syphilis which are known to rot your brain. Syphilis was invented in a lab by white russian emigre doctors to prevent a repeat of 1917. Antibiotics allegedly cure syphilis but in reality they give you autism. Conclusion: it's impossible to build a mass movement of workers and build a classless society, what you should do is become a christian mystic but by no means stop using the internet.

The prominent serious leftist intellectual thinkers of our time, let me think, you got Adolph Reed, Greenwald, Maddow, Dore, Admin and Red Kahina.

Intellectualism, as I've tried to demonstrate with this thread, isn't based on qualifications but quality of thought. All ideologies need good thinkers associated with them, and you're being handicapped by believing this is an exclusively or characteristically liberal thing.

in order to have leftist intellectuals there would need to be other leftists, and my political doctrine dictates that everyone else besides me is a lib, so it’s technically impossible
