I read the WSWS several times a week. They have excellent writers. There is a huge blind spot though in many of their readers though. A lot of their readers who comment regularly, are really intelligent Marxist thinkers, but they denigrate with arrogance, ideas not sanctioned by say, the FDA, etc and put down people for not adhering to a supposedly “pure” Marxist analysis of anything and everything they do. I wrote in the comments section to watch Dr. Mobeen Syed’s interview last night on youtube, of the heroic Dr. Paul Marik, who is Chief of Critical Care Medicine at Eastern Virginia Medical and who developed the MATH+ and I-MASK+ protocols for treating Covid-19. Two of these socialists know-it-alls, denigrated my comments without even having any medical information to back up their criticisms. I’ve practiced medicine for 34 years as an NP. I think I know what I’m talking about. But that wasn’t good enough for them. Sometimes, their commenters stink to high heaven with the very elitism they purport to abhor. And that ends up turning off people who might otherwise agree with them on much.
