It's easy to say that it feels like a psyop, but the levels of class reductionism - that is to say - the knee-jerk ridicule of intersectional shit or critical race theory stuff feels highly suspect. Like, you can't say white people are nerds (which they are) in a lot of anti-woke left spaces without harsh rebukes, and it seems really suspect to me. Is there a real fash pipeline in our midst? Are class reductionist white people that sensitive and defensive and... well... white to the point that they can't let go of their privilege even in the context of them being left?

    declares reactionary elements of the working class are defensible simply because they stem from the working class.

    Yep. Amber for example has never found a reactionary who she hasn't defended. Always always tries to make excuses for them and is a big reason I stopped listening to that podcast.
