I’m writing a series of books decoding the language and tactics of the far left, based on my original deep dives into their content and culture.

When you fund this project, you'll get real-time, insider access to the groundbreaking content as I create it, before the book is even published!


I’ve created a powerful timeline of queer literature explicitly connecting queerness with anti-capitalist politics.

This timeline starts in the 1960s and features dozens of influential works that have shaped today’s queer activists. It reveals that while these ideas began taking root decades earlier, the 1990s were the pivotal era for this type of publication, marking a significant surge in material.

Documenting this timeline is crucial to understanding how our world has shifted towards a Marxist utopia.

I’m continuing to expand the list, which may become part of multiple projects, including a full publication in the Socialist Dictionary.
