I've heard that he's been doxxed and people are trying to get him expelled from the DSA?

As far as I can tell, it's for trying to dunk on someone with this tweet.

Is he in the wrong in some way I can't see, a victim of overreaction, or do I just not have the full picture?

    nothing to see here folks, just the twitter social fascists trying to drag a based DSA organizer for being against segregated black communes.

      Well, as I dug deeper I discovered at least a few "leftists" trying to turn this whole thing into a rant against Asians. One poster even started ranking the races in terms of racism against black people (whites and asians the worst, followed by Middle Easterners, Latinos, then Native Americans).

      Social fascism indeed.

        God damn man this whole defense against ‘anti-blackness’ (it’s a historical term, don’t just take it at face value) ideology has been cancer for the left

          It's only a matter of time before we're all canceled for dunking on Obama and Harris.

            hence why i said don’t take the term at face value. it is a historical term that means more than what it sounds like it means. hard to explain let me see if i can find something that explains it better than i could.

            no, but it also genuinely bothers me when people go way overboard with this on other minority groups like asians and Latinos(like directly attacking the group). Anti-blackness is a problem that stems from white supremacy. It’s good to point out the anti-blackness that exists in those groups and criticize them but sometimes I see nasty attacks and that really makes me sad. Maybe it’s just because twitter is a terrible place in general.

      It was white "leftists" who made slavery jokes, followed by a black girl calling for segregated communes, followed again by Honda's comments.

        Uh, yeah there is. It’s literally reactionary. Rather than actively advocating for a better world, you are reactively building your vision of a free world as an inverse of the oppressors’ own vision. I’m sure all the white-nationalists would love to see all the blacks self-segregated into their own “communes.” They might even help you set them up.

            I didn’t say it was the same. I said it was inverse. However when you take the inverse of something (in this case the inverse of what you think is bad segregation as opposed to good segregation) you are still doing so with respect to the original something. So your whole fantasy of woke-segregation is still fundamentally based on the practices of the oppressor.

            Also you’re essentializing peoples’ role in society by ascribing their ontological position to a factor predetermined at birth rather than engaging in actual historical materialist analysis of the relations between peoples. Basing the new society upon racial distinctions is literally basing your society upon a racial contradiction. How can you hope to have a stable lasting social project when your very socious itself is based upon contradiction?

            Much better to base it on the producing class for these reasons: contradiction between socially determined economic classes is actually resolvable in the sense that you can imagine a world of only producers. You cannot imagine a world of only blacks without removing the exception. that removal of the exception is what constitutes every genocide and every atrocity that happened bc people based their societies on fundamentally unresolvable contradictions.
