It really annoys him when Marxists point out that his (Utopian/Liberal) theory of revolutionary change has never succeeded in establishing Socialism in the Global North. He knows he can’t attack Marxists on material grounds, so he decided to either ignore it or critique it on the basis that it doesn’t meet his arbitrary standard of “moral” or “democratic” enough.

Neither has any sort of literal revolutionary (as in, protracted people’s war) socialism. There’s ample opportunity for critique when nothing has worked in the Global North.
