Btw, in her previous tweet, she says "THE WORKING CLASS IS WOMEN AND LATINOS AND BLACK PEOPLE AND QUEER PEOPLE WE ARE THE WORKING CLASS FUCK YOU" so I guess she is calling herself a white supremacist? Also she "writes and lectures about ethics, from feminism to race relations" 😬

    This is what identity politics leads to.

    They only ever talk about the "white working class"..... A term that really should not even exist. All these terms exist to constantly divide the working class into so many groups and subdivisions so they'll infight, and it's been working for decades.

      Pretty sure she's speaking for at least three communities she's not a part of.

    Was this from a thread about Yang criticizing the Dems for turning their backs on the working class? It was a mess full of idpol shit like this.

    If I'm trying to be as generous as possible... it's certainly true that CHUDS appropriate the term "working class" to mean exclusively employed white people who generally share their same values. Ok fair enough. But that's exclusively the chuds. The left and even as far center as radlibs generally use this term correctly. So instead of using her tweet to explain how the right tries to redefine working class, she just makes a blanket statement that pisses off everyone. Bravo.

    I met a poster from an antique land who said

    "A vast dismembered arm of stone lies in the desert.

    Near it, on the sand

    Half sunken, a shattered dong lay

    Whose hilarious dimensions, and proclivity to stand, tell that it's sculptor well the zeitgeist read

    Which yet survives, etched on these solid things

    The hand that mocked them, and the part that bred; and on the pedestal, these words appear:

    My name is Ozymandias, king of kings; Look on my jerk-off motion, ye Mighty, and despair!"

    Nothing beside remains. Round the decay of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,

    The dumb and awful takes stretch far away

      Alright so it's official, if I read the words "sucked off" my brain will play the "getting sucked off by a twink, it's what they want these days" drop from trashfuture. Need to like do a podcast detox

        If you say "Jewish overlords" your white supremacy is NOT showing, I learned that at harvard

          The sucking by mouth thing is only really something that still happens in some ultra Orthodox communities, and that's about it. Most boys getting circumcised nowadays aren't getting their peens sucked by rabbis, and haven't been, for, like, over a century.

          Yeah, your link probably says this, I know, but people here don't read.

    is this the "class reductionism" I've heard so much about?
