For one full year (which turned into four), he would post about politics every day on "leftist Twitter," but without "choosing a side" between Democrats, socialists, communists or progressives.

This is the story of that bad idea and what he learned during that time.

Informed by such thinkers as Alvin Toffler, Barbara Ehrenreich, Chalmers Johnson, Mark Blyth, Michael Hudson, Clara Mattei, Robert Ovetz, Steve Keen and dozens of others, this book is intended as a "travel guide" for activists, organizers and curiosity seekers alike. It demystifies such recent developments as the decline of corporate social media platforms, the rise of independent media (the "Fifth Estate") as it replaces the mainstream media, "punk economics," divisions within the "online left" itself, and why the US economic system has entered its "late stage capitalism" phase.

The second book from Russian Nazi Troll Bots author Eric Saeger examines what a "unified online left" could accomplish by coming to agreement on real-world objectives, combatting divisive propaganda and joining forces, first by looking at alternative social media platforms, then by looking at the commonalities and differences between liberals and "farther-leftists," and finally by offering practical advice on activist strategies like hashtag campaigns and other techniques that could potentially augment the work of organizers involved in labor, climate and other areas of activism.
