There's only one Jackson Hinkle people here of all places should know who Jason Hickel is. He's a good propagandist, produces serious work, maybe the only person who publishes in The Monthly Review but presents as a normal person

the only thing i know about them is that they're posted here semi regularly

That's because he's good. Capitalism and Extreme Poverty: A Global Analysis of Real Wages, Human Height, and Mortality Since the Long 16th Century is a good place to start.

Or if you want some lighter fare his citations-needed eps are really good: Ep 108: How GDP Fetishism Drives Climate Crisis and Inequality is one of their better eps.

The Upstream is kind of lib coded, but they have good guests - his ep China pt. 1: A Socialist Introduction is really strong.

Hinkle rhymes with Stinkle, whereas Hickle rhymes with Sickle.

There is no reason any of us should ever pay attention to Jackson Hinkle

This is John Bellamy-Foster slander that I will not stand for
