Houston, our problems are not going away.

The comment threads on YT and, particularly those chyron-like comments on its live blogs, by and large exclude the possibility of engagement which Disqus does offer while it's reach is, next to YT channel's, unfortunately insignificant.

The—as "tankie" Caleb Maupin has coined them,—synthetic, but very influential YouTube and, to a lesser degree, Jacobin, Current Affairs, Chomsky, West and Brooklyn's PMC  LOTE "left" deserve special attention from those who, like true Americans in the Albright mold "stand tall and see further into the future." ;)

As though 50 years of sliding into neoliberalism under the protective and watchful eyes of self-id'd  Marxist/socialist, academe-bound and LOTE-pontificating "leftist" intelligensia wasn't enough, they are still as ever at it; pimping their biennial/quadrennial losing tactic while attempting to shame others for not buying into their stale shit any more.

The winning strategy for the working class has always been tied to the numbers of its class-members(left and right, of course) ready to start organizing as one put upon class outside of the current institutions of power. 

The left has got it's own demons to attend to first...
