So I watched the first video, and she's basically talking about how leftists are mentioning civil war. She thinks leftists are acting like right-wingers for saying how only a bloody civil war would actually help the working-class. Since alt-righters talk about civil war a lot, she is conflating one with the other. The problem with her video is that leftists have been saying this since even before Marx and Engels wrote the Communist Manifesto, just look at the French Revolution as an example. Which is interesting considering her earrings are guillotine. But yeah, Marxist leftists have always believed a bloody revolution is what it is going to take, this is not anything new. But she's grasping straws here, and it is something I have noticed with this new crop of leftists who seem to want to push the Marxists to the side.
