Amazing how solidarity, brotherhood and heroism are now white qualities. Reminds me when they said the
idea of freedom is a white supremacy when they talked about the Canadian truckers.
The last several generations of individualism and decadent liberalism, high prevalence of technology with first mover innovation edge and relative opulence of merely being born into industrialized advanced economies have probably all played a role in deconstructing racial/ethnic tribalism and eroded nationalist sentiment among the majority demo of western countries.
Yeah, 'cultural marxism' but post-modernist ideologies don't even have the opportunity to fester in the absence of an unprecedented level of comfort and privilege. There is a horde of people with nothing better to do and they are seemingly gripped by mass psychosis as a result. Most are weaklings in and of themselves but there's cause for concern when governments and corporations combine to co-opt such movements.
The interesting thing is that true leftists like
@ICHEERTHEBULL have just as much reason to be opposed to the aforementioned and our increasingly corporatocracy driven hellscape. For him, class-consciousness is supposed to transcend all else, it's almost purely economics whereas modern identity politics centered around splintered group recognition and grievance is virtually the opposite of that.
It's certainly complicated by how much race has historically served as a component of class, but it's pretty clear by the current levels of wealth and income inequality that white people are hardly exempt from exploitation and they really never have been, which is the original bribe of 'white privilege' as described by the commies who coined the damn term itself.
The challenge is how do you go about solving this conundrum? That is, achieving a transcendent level of class-consciousness that cuts across all barriers of group identity without making existing minorities feel as though their grievances are being marginalized -- and simultaneously not alienating the largest voting bloc in the country from left wing movements to make them feel like some kind of inherent enemy ("straight white male" blah blah ad nauseam).
