    Honest take:

    Aren't class issues and identity politics practically the same thing?

    Is this is what the meme is insinuating? Forgive me for I am a stupid leftist.

      I mean me being trans and being discriminated against on that isn't inherently about class, but identity. And that discrimination should be fought against, regardless of my class, even tho being part of a group that is discriminated against probably correlates somewhat with class.

        Capital sure does love to weaponize trans identity to try to turn people into reactionary shitheads and kill solidarity. I can see that much.

        Fuck that. Solidarity forever.

          There is enough hate my heart for the bourgeoise and LGBTQ+ phobes!

          Solidarity forever.

      yep, class is the core of identity politics, class is the primary contradiction that we have to pull at to unify the people around the rest of the struggle, which will lead to new “ages” of human history and year zero events

      the people telling you “identity politics are bad” are reactionaries who haven’t completely made their way through the pipeline to revolutionary worldviews
