I’m about half way through this video, I’d never seen it before. I think she offers some decent rebuttal and fact checking. I didn’t understand, and her listeners didn’t understand why she would say the Marxist Leninists are basically liberals who are apologetic to horrors committed by the left (but that’s not true, Marxist Leninists are not liberals), then she said she was being sarcastic- if you are fact checking then your statements should be taken at face value. I think her frustration comes from the lack of criticism of all of the failures of communist regimes. The Deprogram podcast with Hakim has an episode about the failures of communist parties, and though they mentioned the restriction of religious freedom, they completely skipped over major atrocities like China’s Land Reform Movement. I couldn’t imagine a party leader who was less qualified or more destructive to their own people than Mao was, it’s amazing that China is where it is today with a terrible history like that. But yeah, I’ve been waiting for Hakim to voice concerns about past atrocities and I haven’t heard anything.
What’s a tankie?

The video you linked was made in bad faith by Hakim, a tankie
A rebuttal of his points by Keffals explains what a tankie is much better

Ah yes of course, Keffals and Vaush, the very well known fascists
