Ironically if the book was written more dispassionately it probably would've been taken more seriously. Instead it's basically like "if you're white shut the fuck up and maybe you can be the janitor of the revolution but only if you're wholly submissive to those of us who really deserve it" lol. Moralizing only serves bourgeois interests.
Moralism is ineffective when you're already post-morality. :stirner-shocked: Our local movement had a bunch of the self-flagellating types and all the more radical people dutifully fucked off to do something more useful.
Yeah like I'm Proletarian. I have white privilege but no class or material privilege. Self-flagellation is probably kinky to PMC mayos who already have everything material that they need and want, but that ain't me lol. Show me solidarity and I'll fight with you, but don't expect me to degrade myself. Being super sorry about people that look like you isn't ever going to help marginalized people. Tbf though it seems like very few white people can find a middle ground between racism and self-flagellation.
