Completely off topic, you might find this guest post on a fellow substacker's substack entertaining, in a People's Front of Judea vs. Judean People's Front sort of way:
The blogger himself (not the guest) is center-right and more misanthropic than you, a peevish Mencken. The general misanthropy as well a number of self-deprecatory remarks he has made in his substack allow me to ignore his regular expressions of bigotry (Moslems, Blacks, large swaths of Jewry) so I can find his posts good for shits and giggles. He has more than once stated the opinion that the average intelligence of leftists is greater than that of rightists, so there's that.
The linked post is amazing for the sheer waste of time -- I can't imagine that the writer enjoyed the time or energy spent -- involved picking up the information shared in the post. Nor do I understand why the owner of the substack gave him the keys for this post, but that's neither here nor there.
You may know the author is connected with Chris Cutrone, one of those "Everybody on the Left is wrong except me" dudes and also related to the infamous Platypus tendency out of Syracuse Univ., a.k.a. "orange Marxism."
I grew up a few blocks from SU and spent much time on campus as a teenager (late 60s, early 70s, not been back in 25 years) but never heard about that sect. Please say more
What google turns up on Orange marxism seems to be something unrelated to Marxism connected to Poland. What it turns up on the Platypus Society is connected to UChicago not SU, and sounds reminiscent of the link posted above. So yes, ignore forever!

I know little about it. Heard just enough years ago to determine I should ignore them forever. You'd do better with Google.
