I just read the book. Overall it's very good and filled with original insights while succinctly presenting opposing intellectual views. The author should write a bigger book that will analyze more thoroughly his ideas. The concept that we are entering a new post capitalist system that is even worse than traditional capitalism needs further and deeper examination.
@9:00 this point about the theological function of the insistence on it being capitalism until the second coming (communism), and the strange psycholibidinal investment that leftists have formed to this worldview, 'tis a slamdunk

Socialists can't fathom the thought that Capitalism has been overthrown and it wasn't them that did it.
