With that out of my system, to my mailbag question: Is it common in Leftist/Marxist discourse to be so obsessed with manufacturing, especially manufacturing profitability? It seems like the only meaningful economic fact that matters to them, but I find it bizarre. I have a ton of issues with the article, mostly revolving around the authors' interpretation of American politics, from demonstrably false, to misleading and simplistic, to their weirdly parochial discourse on everything from educational polarization to inflation (ignoring very relevant international comparisons). After reading through your treatment, I went and read it.
That has definitely been the case reading your article on "The Seven Theses" of American politics.
I wouldn't say it's a top reason I subscribe, but your work introduces me to a lot of thinking of the Left that I am not very familiar with.
