the most fascinating thing abt rad-left politics was how much of it was crafted by people for whom money was no object, whose "community" consisted of gentrified urban facades that were essentially funerary palls, whose schizo policies were meant to drive twitter engagement
you've got activists now admitting they're heirs and heiresses to millions after that "wonk" guy got doxxed (they rushed to oppose "doxxing" and defend "class traitors" of course). that's meaningless: if money is no object, you'll never understand that money is the object of life
that's what i talk about when i talk about "doing the work." the "work" is just kind of selling your feel-good goods in a space where there are no consequences, where the messiah always has to be an election cycle away, where the end goal is not socialism but getting on CNN
when i had nothing, no home and no future, my goal wasn't to get on CNN or "write my novel" or some stupid shit like that. my goal was to get some money so i wouldn't have no money. money, this imaginary shit we've agreed is essential for incentivizing labor. my "work" was work
I work in social services, specifically with people in poverty. Absolutely none of the (current) modern mouthpieces for leftism/socialism are on their radar, & if they were would get ZERO traction as currently composed.
These names really do exist in a Twitter media bubble, and part of what I do is saying that over and over, because as you noted, it's true
It was pretty obvious with Wonk how literally anytime he said something within 24 hours it was destroyed/deplatformed/viciously attacked until apology given. He was the chosen "target painter"
Such a strange role
Socialism has never and nowhere been at first a working-class movement. - F A Hayek
Unions, certainly, but not these ideology-driven affairs of the heart.
