lol i just thought you all were doing a bit tbh
edit: i cannot believe emotes don’t work in titles
huge mood :angery:
How does anyone consider themselves a leftist while being virulently anti-idpol? Are they just completely unaware of the role of women’s and black liberation struggles in leftist history? Do they not understand imperialism, colonialism, the labor aristocracy, and the right to self determination? Have they not grappled with social reproduction? I get that liberal identity politics is maddening and unproductive, but a complete rejection of it is a complete rejection of the unique conditions which different segments of the proletariat faces. Bourgeoisie feminism sucks which is why we need proletarian feminism. Black capitalism is useless which is why we need black socialism. Not to mention anti-imperialism, which should still remain the primary goal of leftists in the imperial core, You would have to be willfully ignorant to pretend that “idpol” struggles have not always been on the forefront of anti-imperialism (while workers movements have frequently been complicit in it!)
They are sick of politicians using symbolic gestures instead of improving people’s material conditions, but don’t have the language to express that, so they easily pickup on the anti-idpol.
It’s frustration at liberalism at its core. They just took the wrong thing from it.
Because liberal identity politics is maddening, unproductive and above all divisive.
I have to ask again, why are you named after a Neo Nazi comedian?
Edit: For those wondering why I’m curious:
kinda weird that you can view comments from deleted theads
It takes about 30 minutes on blue check Twitter to ruin your opinion of idpol if you don’t know any better.
Love the amount of class reductionism in the online left at the moment.
I need to just stay offline for a bit. I can’t stand that shit and I’ll end up in too many arguments
Cool, glad to hear that my ability to get HRT is a tool of oppression, since evidently under bourgeois democracy idpol can only be used as a tool for oppression. Very good and connected to reality take!
Its pragmatism gone wrong. They see a group of hard working manly proles and a tiny by comparison group of annoying college student sjws. And think “this group is small and annoying and accepting their ideas will push away the manly proles that don’t understand or care about micro aggressions. Proles can’t understand big words anyway.”
outside of their imagination It’s cause they value racists over poc and sexists over women and queerphobes over queer people. It’s them who is dividing the left by pandering to bigots who want to devide us.
Maybe get her to read Chasing the Scream, I used to be an absolute fuckwit about drug addiction/policy before I read that book. It’s really easy to read because it’s essentially a series of short biographies you can complete over multiple sittings, and it touches on other social issues including structural racism.
Opening up a pocket of empathy will make it easier to let more in, and hopefully help bring her back to Earth a little.
However you do it though, stay strong comrade, the forces of reaction are always around, but so are we :heart-sickle:
