Reminder. The thing the rich fear more than anything else is VIOLENCE directed at THEM, when you finally reject their propaganda that puts you at each other's throats. That propaganda uses #IdentityPolitics, or #CultureWar to fool you. Don't be fooled. You have much more in common with each other than the rich, pigs.

#Maleinmates claiming to be #transgender so they can move to women's prisons often have a rap sheet with sexual crimes #identitypolitics #deception

There’s a definite place for social commentators like Russell Brand in our current paradigm. We need people prepared to ask difficult questions & who’re open to answers coming from across the entire political spectrum.
But I’m a bit flummoxed by this excerpt from his talk with Jordan Peterson on Identity Politics.
It appears that these two straight, cis men, are ignoring the fact that people are often forced to explain & defend themselves in the arena of Identity Politics by the wider straight cis community whose judgements & (wrongly) assumed superiority springs partially from religious doctrine.
Nobody thinks the most interesting thing about themselves is who they have sex with, or how, or why, or where they sit on the gender spectrum, or if they’re trans. I’d say everyone would just prefer to be treated respectfully, equally, & left to get on with their lives without incessant interrogation.

"[I]f one was concerned with preventing the fragmentation of the left, one’s primary concern would be working to end oppression within left wing movements themselves and ensuring that left wing movements place importance on the emancipation of all of humanity from all structures of domination." - Zoe Baker #anarchism #intersectionality #identitypolitics

Ramblings on personal identity

Identity is a funny thing. My whole life I’ve struggled with how I see myself, what I can or can’t claim, how I go about my life, and how others perceive me. It isn’t just a mixed race thing. It’s a deeper intersection of various identities I either personally hold or continuously rub up again.

@Miro_Collas
There is literally nothing stopping #AOC from having access to both #fedi and the #doomsdayMachine, (we mean- #falsebook).

We struggle to see her as a truly #progressive voice. In our experience, the sorts of #identityPolitics we have seen coming out of the #twoPartySystem in the #USA, is a manufactured #falseChoice-type dichotomy, to divide people in simplistic ways, rather than bring people together on things, eg. privacy.

@openwebfriend

@prolrage Oh yeah, totally agree. It's no surprise, since we're more or less a USA colony. #IdentityPolitics worked so well to extinguish protests on real (or at least wide-involving) issues in the #USA, and now even in #Europe we're falling for it. Result: the movement is more shattered than ever, despite all the intersectionality being pushed.

Yesterday I started with the Locating Legacies podcast series by the Stuart Hall foundation and Pluto Press and listened to the episode on (how the elite captured) Identity Politics with Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò. Today I listened to this episode with Françoise Vergès whose books on decolonial feminisme are on my to-read-pile. Looking forward to the rest.

In my over 20+ years in SF and 10+ in the Richmond, I've never seen a supervisor's office in such disarray as Supervisor Chan's.

By no means is it the responsibility of the legislative staff. I have a lot of respect for the folks who stuck around but my goodness it is sad and troubling as a D1 resident.

For those who think (like me) that in the end #economics & material wellbeing is more important than #cultrewars & #identitypolitics when people are in the voting booth, the chart below will confirm to the #Tories that their chances of avoiding a major meltdown in the next #election are becoming vanishingly small!

Quite apart from the other damage they have caused, its pretty difficult to win an election when you've just made people a lot poorer!

@liverpoolphilos @philosophy It'd also be interesting to hear Olúfẹ́mi O Táíwò. I've been using the following from his recent book Elite Capture: How the Powerful Took Over Identity Politics (And Everything Else):

https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/1867-elite-capture

It concerns how identity politics concentrates our attention ‘on the interactions inside the rooms we occupy’. These are rooms that have been constructed in advance, but not by us. Nor have we had much input into their design. ‘From a structural perspective, the rooms we don’t enter, the experiences we don’t have (and the reasons we are able to avoid them) might have more to teach us about the world and our place in it than anything said inside’.
