      From checking their profile it's more like they orientalise socially conservative Chinese culture and use it as an excuse to go full stupididpol and be a transphobe.

        "yes, the conservative parts of Chinese culture are socialism, not the parts where oppressed groups are being rapidly given more rights and allowed to participate as equals in society"

      So I checked their profile and apparently their argument for racism against white people being something that exists is a scenario in which a white person dates a POC in a socially conservative white minority country and experiences prejudice against them. No I'm not making this up, that's their argument.

        Sounds like presented as individualist problem. Or do you think you will be able to gather a movement by saying: "Hey I wanna date Amy, do you want to be able to date an Amy, too?!"

    slurs against white people

    🤔 I'm sure uniting the american working class that hasn't unlearned and undone it's internal biases will work out just fine. They're already armed so

      Also does this person not realise that all these issues (LGBTQIA+ rights, destigmatization and access to mental health care, racial inequality) are major issues in the global south? Like its not "CIA" to actually try improve your country and realise how capital intersects with all of this? OP on r*ddit sounds almost orientalist when talking about actually existing socialism.

      Editing to say I just checked their profile and it's a typical stupid idpol type. Some extremely transphobic comments. It's always the same with these people isn't it.

          Well a local org in my country keeps quoting Fanon in their public statements, and according to the r*dditor that's CIA, so...

        have you ever been to a third world country? those things on your list are usually the least of your worries. Most of the third world is way more racially homogeneous, or less caring about race than america. LGBTQ rights like gay marriage or mental health care/ stigmatization are worries way way way after getting food, working a shit job, or having good housing.

    I honestly don't understand what's "ID pol" about Fanon. I don't like Sakai very much, but Fanon seems really solidly on the side of solidarity between the black and white working class so long as they learn to launch a real struggle against colonialism and white chauvenism in practice and as a psychological complex. I haven't read his later work (Wretched of the Earth) yet so maybe there is something there that I'm missing.

      I honestly don’t understand what’s “ID pol” about Fanon.

      (it's the fact that he's black. they think about idpol the same way marvel movie chuds do)

      The way stupidpol dummies interact with Fanon is absolutely incomprehensible. I once had a dude reply to me saying he read Fanon for his PhD and was still like "therefore we should ignore colonialism and racism"

        he read Fanon for his PhD

        Can't trust PhD students in bourgeoise universities with revolutionary theory. If you did the text any justice, it means you probably should have been kicked out of your program. If you got you PhD from it, it's because you ritually butchered the text until it is devoid of all theoretical rigour or usefulness.

    Yeah, white people with internalized racism who are unable to just be like “yeah it’s there because our culture is racist and I’m working on it” are fucking awful.

    “Anything that reminds me I live in an apartheid ethnostate is racist because I’m a weak piece of shit that would rather lash out at everyone than just stand in solidarity.”
