When and why did the left stop viewing the working classes as agents of social change and instead focus on men in skirts?are they stupid?
>>541858784*siiiigh*Here we go again. ;-)Fragmentation of Collective DissentThe final stage is not simply to permit dissent, but to administratively structure the dissenting group. Once a movement becomes sufficiently institutionalized, procedures intended to prevent domination can themselves become mechanisms for preventing collective action.Step-in / Step-out Participation: Meetings are organized around voluntary participation, rotating facilitation, affinity groups, caucuses, and temporary working groups. This can make participation accessible, but it also makes sustained collective organization more difficult. People enter and leave the process without developing the durable institutional relationships necessary to exercise power.Progressive Stack / Procedural Speech: Speaking order may be organized according to socially defined categories of privilege or marginalization. The ostensible purpose is to ensure that historically excluded voices are heard. But political authority can thereby migrate from the content of an argument to the social classification of its speaker. Disagreement becomes a question of who is entitled to speak rather than what should be done.Privilege Accounting: Participants are encouraged to understand political conflict through categories of race, sex, class, sexuality, and other forms of social position. These categories can identify genuine differences in experience, but when they become the principal organizing principle of a movement, members begin to encounter one another as representatives of demographic interests rather than as participants in a common struggle.Internal Moral Surveillance: The movement develops an elaborate vocabulary for identifying problematic behavior—privilege, domination, appropriation, microaggression, exclusion, insufficient awareness, and so forth. The result can be a peculiar inversion: a group founded to challenge external power expends increasing amounts of its energy policing its own members.
Substitution of Purity for Power: Political effectiveness requires coalition-building, compromise, persistence, and the ability to tolerate disagreement. A highly moralized movement can instead reward ideological purity and procedural correctness. Members compete to demonstrate that they possess the correct consciousness, while practical questions of organization, resources, recruitment, and leverage become secondary.The irony is that this can produce precisely the fragmentation that a hierarchical system benefits from. A movement that once understood itself as workers against management, or citizens against an institution, begins to understand itself as a collection of competing identities negotiating their relative privileges.The common adversary becomes increasingly abstract. The internal differences become increasingly concrete.The collective subject dissolves.This is the deeper version of the commodification thesis. Capital does not necessarily have to suppress every form of rebellion. It can allow rebellion to become culture, then procedure, then identity, and finally personal consumption.The trajectory therefore becomes:Repression incorporation participation fragmentation individualization.The old authoritarian organization said: You will obey.The modern organization increasingly says: You are free to participate in designing the process through which your participation will be managed.The most sophisticated form of containment is therefore not silence. It is endless participation without accumulation of power.
>>541858936That's entry level stuff. It doesn't explain why leftoids still go along with it.
>>541858972>endless participation without accumulation of power.What does that remind you of?

>>541858784>are they stupidwell they are highly college educated so...yes
>>541861418>Why did they just go along with it? Half of all people are below 100 IQ, and that lower half tends to also be louder, more obnoxious, and prone to groupthink.

Because modern Western Leftism is fundamentally based on weakness and self-hatred. Men like Lenin and Stalin and Mao did not hate themselves. They saw the world as something to mold to their desires through force of will. That is the opposite of these people.

The DSA is pretty focused on class issues this year. I'm proud of em.
>>541858784The left abandoned the working class during the Obama administration. Now if you have a job youre an evil capitalist bourgeois, and youre only part of the noble "working class" if youre a jobless NEET who puts pronouns on their profile.
>>541858784They got subverted by kikes and the rich.
>>541865166>The left abandoned the working class during the Obama administration.pretty sure it was during the clinton and blair "focus group " era
>>541865166Yeah, for 10 years now no one has represented the working class
>>541858784Because capitalism made life better and the lower classes slowly began to rise up with better oportunities and technology. Leftism only survived thanks to the negative dialectis. That's why they focus on man with skirts, as they have to ruim everything for everybody and the only way to do it is by fabricating outrage, I'm to drunk to explain but the answer is in the negative dialectis.

When the working class and more importantly, the third world, gave up on communism and socialism.The cold war was a battle between the US and USSR over who's ideology would prevail in the third world. Every nation that embraced capitalism saw population growth and increased standards of living. For a 3rd world peasant, working a factory is better than the alternative. The only people left were then men in skirts.

>>541861418>Surely they could see that once the left moves away from class and economics it castrates itselfBecause they lost once already when they focused on class and economics. So now they only focus on race and sex. Of course they are losing that too because reality has an anti-leftist bias.

>>541865966Absolutely not. He made it a crime for the railroad union to go on strike over safety issues, leading directly to the East Palestine train crash.Biden was anti-working class.
Leftism was born out of industralization, and hence it dies with deindustrialization. When capitalism eliminates the need for labor, we will no longer need a left nor will we need the vast majority of human beings.Nothing human makes it out in the near future.
>>541858784When they realized that lots of workers havea) a positive attitude towards their occupation/take pride in their workb) often a positive opinion about capitalism and how it affords them the latest goysloppac) negative opinions about the heckin migranterinos and that the global north/south equalization as it is planned by contemporary leftists is absolutely impossible with them (because western workers would probably lose out the most)>>541858936dont listen to this gay shit (i didnt read it but I know it was written by some fag)
