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?
Lmao why are there so many comments that are just "Wow so you think all white people are nerds and we cant even get mad about it?", really telling on yourselves.
I'm kind of fence sitting on this because I can't pick a side, but why are we encouraging attacks on specific people's race anyway?
On one hand, mayo jokes and shit are funny because white people are privileged and it's not really punching down, and I've never been offended by somebody airing their grievances about how they've been mistreated by white Americans consistently and shit. But if you're in the company of fellow leftists, and you start joking about white people or making "racist" comments about white people and it makes them uncomfortable, why would you demand they shut the fuck up and let you keep dunking on mayos? Are you more offended being reprimanded than the target is from receiving your perceived "racist" insult?
