I have never said I’m a “leftist theory guru.” I do read a good deal of theory, but there are many here who have read a lot more than I have. I have read enough to know when I see something wrong, though, so I try to help correct it.
I have no idea what you mean by saying I “don’t have anything to offer when engaged.” Further, if you think I read what I read for clout on a tiny, fringe website, then that’s absurd. If I wanted clout for reading, I’d go to Twitter or Bluesky, or even YouTube, where the audience is far larger.

Not if you’re doing it purely for clout.

I guess, but I don’t see how that’s relevant. Who reads for “clout?”

Your whole profile is “I’m a leftist theory guru”. And then you don’t actually have anything to offer when engaged.
