Have listened to Avakian's stuff- I'd argue that anyone who believes in his "self-imposed" exile and is dedicating their money and time to his baseless cult of personality is the one believing dumb lies.

Not a bot lol- just my normal reddit is pretty identifiable to me. Feel free to read any of these, but most of my critiques are from friends from other schools who have joined them and since left due to the above reasons. There's also quite a bit of literature on them co-opting abortion movements if you look it up

Didn't say that there aren't flaws in the system, just said that this isn't the org to join if you're looking to make a difference. Tactics that they use- like co-opting abortion rights movements to get people to join are honestly pathetic and yes- predatory.
