The event had celebrity guests such as Mark Hamill, Josh Groban, Bradley Whitford, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Sean Astin, Paul Scheer, Jeff Bridges, J.J. Abrams, maybe more
Politicians who participated were Pete Buttigieg, Roy Cooper, JB Pritzer, and Tim Walz.
They had a twitter account but it is mysteriously banned.
Fucking libs. Yeah, as a white man you can be a member of the Klan or do nothing except have 'the right opinions' of being slightly to the left of the Klan.
Naturally dividing the working class along racial lines is bullshit, but if you're gonna take that tack, then how about general strikes, worker rebellions, anti-fascist actions at home and abroad, fucking John Brown?
Unions: am I a joke to you?
both of you need to unironically read settlers
I have and I agree with it.
My point isn't that a uniquely white proletariat is either a) real b) a radical force or c) not a labour aristocracy. I was venting my frustration that the white liberal sees two options and only two options: actively supporting the Klan or not. And that simply not doing the former is adequate is somehow noble and worth self-congratulation.
I suppose I should have written it in a less 'by your logic' way and been clearer.
I need to finish it myself. I packed it for a day trip Saturday and can't seem to find it this morning.
I have, and I'm not even white or American; I have no dog in this fight, and I certainly don't put my hopes for revolutionary potential on the imperial core proletariat. My only point is that saying the only time white men have organized to effect social change in us history was the kkk is intellectually dishonest to say the least.
