    I saw somewhere where the Union campaign was refuting the idea that a Union would amplify white male voices. Like holy shit that’s the new Union busting technique?

        Kind of like the CIA using environmentalist and indigenous activists as puppet candidates. Just wild to see this evolution

          Kind of like the CIA using environmentalist and indigenous activists as puppet candidates.

          Which candidates/operation is this referring to?

              Oof, he isn't good. I'm wary of "eco-socialist" on its own, without some organisational strategy tied to it. If you're representing an ML or reformist or anarchist platform which has ecological goals, fantastic. As the primary focus it always seems to be tied to milquetoast social democratic reforms, idealism, and recuperation of radical environmentalist rhetoric into a bland electoral programme.

      Dividing the workers along racial lines but this time in the name of antiracism, so it couldn't possibly be racist ;)

      I saw a post about references to racism in media post-occupy.

      Part of that is genuine BLM/organizers raising awareness and trying to improve things.

      But a part of all this is emphasizing race over any other class consciousness.

        and of course there is the whole thing about putting a Raytheon exec in at DoD and celebrating him as the first black SecDef. Everything going on with the Labour party.

        Not to be stupidpol about it, but it's absolutely going to be used as a sword and shield.
