He also repeatedly calls sex workers "wh___s" in his writings. And argues that Western workers are exploited to a higher rate than those in the global South.

He's also against the theory of unequal exchange. He doesn't just have one or two mistakes, he consistently makes errors; there's a big difference. Bravo to Cockshott for inventing his own Marxist deviation that nobody follows.
