Currently reading Weil's biography to prep for a podcast with @RevLeftRadio.

She gave every ounce of her strength, and risked her life to fight capitalism and create a worker controlled world.

Not mentioned once. Liberal publications always manage to whitewash radical thinkers.
@RevLeftRadio That she spent years organizing unions to try to seize direct control of factories? Not mentioned.

That she volunteered to fight in the Spanish Civil War? Not mentioned.

That she hosted Trotsky and accused him and the Soviets of not creating a worker's state? Not mentioned.
@RevLeftRadio In fact the words "socialism", "communism", "capitalism", "union", "syndicalism", or "anarchism" aren't mentioned. She dedicated her entire life to fight for the left, literally, and the summary we get of her politics? "Proper democracy".

Absurd.
