And yet I decided to jump onto his live YouTube chat when I read an announcement of it on Facebook as I wanted to, like I did with Ajamu Baraka and Abby Martin, inquire about any relationship to funding networks manag.ed by Venezuela<\/p>\n<p>Amusingly enough within 3 minutes of my asking him a question about his relationship to funding and assistance networks for American aocialist activists that are connected to Venezuela\u2019s state intelligence apparatus he ended the live broadcast.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">That right. Only 25 minutes into a live chat that was supposed to be an hour long and he cancels it!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I was a little bummed as I was hoping to get a definitive response &#8211; but also not surprised.<\/p>\n<p>The only information that I got came from the one &#8220;person&#8221; that shared Caleb Maupin&#8217;s announcement of his upcoming YouTube Talk.<\/p>\n<p>I put &#8220;person&#8221; in quotes as a quick look at his profile, which is public, and a number of the qualities indicating coordinated inauthentic behavior connected to the Kultural Marxism network became evident. These are:<\/p>\n<p>Links to TeleSUR<br \/>\nLinks to Black Agenda Report<br \/>\nPraise of Julian Assange<br \/>\nLinks to Counterpunch<br \/>\nMultiple links praising China<br \/>\nA link to a
