There's a big difference between, say, what Bill Cosby got in trouble for versus Bill Murray once getting arrested for marijuana possession, if you see what I mean. Jacobin is an American socialist quarterly magazine based in New York. The most popular and largest socialist organization in the country. An article talk page is just the place to propose such textual exemplars, not line by line re-litigate each edit and definitely not the place to reproduce an entire article or section that everyone already has access to in the history.

Below I am going to take each point raised here and in the history, and engage with them as systematically as I can.
As a result it has drawn a lot of praise and criticism. [7] A Brazilian edition appeared in 2019,[11] and a German version started publishing in 2020: the latter grew out of Ada, an independent online magazine established in 2018 which primarily published translations of Jacobin articles. [5] He has also contrasted it to publications associated with small leftist groups, such as the International Socialist Organization's Socialist Worker and International Socialist Review which were oriented towards party members and other revolutionary socialists, seeking a broader audience than those works whilst still anchoring the magazine in a Marxist perspective. Its paid print circulation is 40,000 and its website draws more than a million and a half views a month as of 2019. [1], The publication began as an online magazine released in September 2010[2] but it expanded into a print journal later that year. [19], The name of the magazine derives from the 1938 book The Black Jacobins: Toussaint L'Ouverture and the San Domingo Revolution by C. L. R. James in which James ascribes the Black Haitian revolutionists a greater purity in regards to their attachment to the ideals of the French Revolution than the French Jacobins. ✪ The Myth of Class Reductionism with Adolph Reed Jr. ✪ Corporate America's New Favorite VP Nom: Kamala Harris, ✪ Harvey J. Kaye on Thomas Paine and the Left-Wing of the American Revolution. The source code for the WIKI 2 extension is being checked by specialists of the Mozilla Foundation, Google, and Apple. Noam Chomsky has called the magazine "a bright light in dark times". Dsakey was the first editor to take issue with the section and remove it. Jacobin is the largest and most influential left-wing media project in the US. This is why across the political spectrum Jacobin is read and debated. I reverted Dsakey's edit and in doing so engaged with their reasoning in my explanation: "user Dsakey1978 deleted the entire Praise & Criticism section claiming that those sections were poorly sourced and editorialized. [20][21] Writing for the New Statesman in November 2013, Max Strasser suggested that Jacobin claims to "take the mantle of Marxist thought of Ralph Miliband and a similar vein of democratic socialism". @Dsakey1978, BuilderJustLikeBob, and Asoka89:, please stop edit warring and start discussing here. [18], In 2020, Jacobin became an affiliated member of the Progressive International. It will enhance any encyclopedic page you visit with the magic of the WIKI 2 technology. Still no response. So it wasn't a "re-write" exactly, but an addition and clarification edit. Terese has gone as far as saying that she believes Jacobin to be Libertarian in its orientation. I haven't absorbed much of a sense of public and professional opinion of Jacobin and how its reputation stands (with whom), so it's hard to say what should or should not make the cut, without doing a bunch of research on it. Also for the reading groups lists I could not figure out how to have two columns side-by-side so that more info can be packed in to a smaller space. Jacobin is a leading voice of the American left, offering socialist perspectives on politics, economics, and culture. So this is the second time that I have engaged with an editor's reasoning. It offers perspectives on politics, economics and culture. I'm just coming from a general-principles position. A closer-to-home example might be that the mainstream press publishers and TV/net/radio news producers have a strong supermajority view that Fox News is basically bankrupt of journalistic ethics and is acting as propaganda, not news. You cannot talk about the left in the US, without talking about Jacobin.

So your claims about Jacobin's lack of relevancy don't hold. After Bernie dropped out Sunkara claimed that Jacobin was now free from the party line and could openly say things like "fuck Elizabeth Warren." "The Next Left: An Interview with Bhaskar Sunkara", "No Short-Cuts: Interview with the Jacobin", "Jacobin Magazine: entretien avec Bhaskar Sunkara", "Workers Unionize At Socialist Magazine 'Jacobin, "Top Marx: socialist magazine Jacobin's staffers unionize", "Eine Prise Optimismus, angelsächsische Art", "Remembering Our Friend and Comrade Michael Brooks", "Michael Brooks Dead: Popular Host of 'The Michael Brooks Show' Dies Suddenly", "The Young Turks - Remembering Michael Brooks", "Progressives mourn the loss of political commentator Michael Brooks", "Inside Jacobin: how a socialist magazine is winning the left's war of ideas", "Who are the new socialist wunderkinds of America?

As of 2020, its paid print circulation per the magazine was 60,000. [27], "Catalyst (journal)" redirects here. With all of this in mind, I would extend Sunkara's claim that Jacobin is the largest and most influential left media project in the US, and say that Jacobin is the largest and most influential media project on the planet.
