Fastforward to 28:00 to see a self-described white gentrifier in a head scarf spends over 10 minutes telling other white people to shut up, aptly demonstrating everything that is wrong with identity politics on the left.
Is there any hope Holla Forums? Can we get people to read Bookchin and abandon this identitarian nonsense?
As far as the 2nd speaker goes, i feel like its the content of their ideas I agree with, but the way they say things are still insanely condescending and dickish. In general, the second speaker communicated her ideas very poorly, to a point where it just kind of rubs me the wrong way having to sit and listen to her. In a way, I get the feeling sometimes the people that like doing this the most are more there for attention, not really about "struggling" with anything.
"You're not needed."
"You don't know what ___ is, shut up."
There's a real lack of tact here. Can you imagine ANY of these people radicalizing white folks in Appalachia? I can't. At all.

We just need to make these people as despised as the white nationalists tbqh
Anthony Rogers
Why do white people think converting to Islam makes them any less white?
Julian Sanders
They are pretty despised already. The problem is people associate them with us.

That whole video made me disappointed to be a leftist. Is it just me or do these people not seem very smart either. I've never been to many meetings outside of anarchist groups but I've found that the anarchist groups I visit aren't filled with the brightest bulbs. sorry for being ableist, I'll police my language better in the future
