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.
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"
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.
