Yeah I'm gonna keep on posting Jacobin pieces, they have always published shitty pieces, but they are one of the only leftist English speaking publications in general, personally I have disliked the writing of the author of the piece you are referring too for years, Marketic has always been a huge Russia didn't do anything wrong kind of guy in regards to Ukraine.

I understand. Honestly, that piece for me was sort of a watershed moment. There are two main threads that run through every form of leftism all across the world: opposition to the far right and worker solidarity. If you can’t bring up the decency to do that, what am I even doing on your site?

I respect that you have a different relationship to the site and are willing to adopt a more nuanced stance. I am definitely not there. There might come a day where I’m able to see the words “Jacobin magazine” without adding “the totenkopf apologia site” in my head, but that is not today.

So, like any good online leftist, I’m posting though it and making it y’all’s problem ;)
