For the consideration of the BEUT voting committee I would like to submit the following:

"extreme left" seems to classify me best but more in the line of thought that flows from Bataille to Foucault, Derrida, Deleuze. i would sometimes classify as an accelerationist I GUESS, but i also believe in social justice and think that even though the economic ideologies we (as the west and increasingly the globalized planet) possess are corrosive and dangerous, using tools with which capitalism is equipped (birth control in all its forms, welfare systems to an extent, etc.) to help the day-to-day lives of people in the Keynesian sense (in the long run we're all dead) isn't completely abhorrent to me. like, i'd vote Democrat or whatever so people don't have to starve and not have medicine and things like that, even if i think that ideological compromise should gradually be eradicated. these band-aids on bullet holes are net negatives in my mind, as they sedate the populace, so i'm much more of a "talk about the bullet holes and promote forced access to flows (of information, material, communication, etc.)" than "bail out everyone and let the state reap the rewards" type.
tl;dr: i don't like capitalism at all but i don't advocate unified Marxist revolution and think philosophers since him have had good ideas about how capitalism should be dismantled, with the continental ideas being my favorites
Well personally I'm of the opinion that Proudhon Kierkegaard Burke Kropotkin Paine Schopenhauer Carabellese Vaneigem Habermas Baudrillard Debord. That being said, I can certainly see why some may say Malthus Socrates Veblen Madison Bentham Locke Bernstein Hausmann Heraclitus Krassner Huelsenbeck. Now, when you say Bataille Foucalt Derrida Deleuze are you suggesting that Klossowski Habermas Lyotard Guattari because I hardly think that Marx Engels Yeats Hemmingway Meyer Brown Black Grey White Smith Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Doe Logan Rogen Hogan Fumanchu Batman Spiderman Superman Popeye-The-Sailor.
tl;dr: mother fucking Yoda.
