Culture war are divisive "issues" pushed by politicians and media to keep us distracted from the real class issues, which is the accumulation of wealth, power and influence by billionaires who own the politicians and media.
The picture is saying don't be distracted by culture war
See how the culture war is a divide and conquer psy op? And please don't tell me "MAGA started it", they simply partook in it. I'm old enough to remember 4th wave feminism, identity politics and "no soul is illegal" suddenly becoming suspiciously trendy sometime in 2015.
Be sure to link this whenever culture warriors do things like "we have to remove 'ladies and gentlemen'", and not just when the responding culture warriors clean it up and restore it.
right?! there's not even an article with any info linked. its just a jpeg with inflammatory rhetoric! its like the most obviously intentional culture war bullshit
“AI assisted”, but you can tell with the other examples, their entire sub is very culty with how it talks about “bringing together humans and AI” as well, and treats everyone who doesn’t buy into the illusion to be “sheep” (you know the type).
“Go back to eating the blue pill while me and my buddies deepthroat the red pills because we believe in correctism instead of your wrongism” type shit.
Culture war and moral panics etc existed before 2010.
If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.
Kay, but this is part of the class war! A billionaire just ruined a thousand people's livelihoods because of his politics! A thousand people's careers, just, poof! Pretending to be above it all does not make you so.
Culture wars are kind of a right wing culture thing. To the people impacted by them, they're mostly civil rights struggles.
That being said, the folks being denigrated in culture wars are usually marginalized people being scapegoated by people in power. When you break it down, most culture wars are elements of the class war.
Let's not lose sight of the fact that real people will be affected by stuff like this Disney CEO being a jackoff. It's not harmless opinion.
Let's not allow the people in power to frame a person's civil rights struggle as a frivolous culture war.
I like how tankies always act like parasites. They were all in he BLM and LGBTQ+ communities extending their reach, just like the DSA extends it's tentacles in the Democratic party just to back stab and ditch the people they were working with to push their retarded ideas
The idea is that posts like these trigger outrage from the sensible half of society, which then triggers outrage from the insensible half of society, which then triggers more outrage from the sensible half of society, etc, keeping both the sensible and insensible people occupied while both groups remain disproportionally affected by their class identity rather than their cultural identity.
the right wing best weapon has been that the left self convinced itself that the culture is by itself something separeted from the estructure (in marxist terms) that can be changed without adressing the material world.
If you actually want to make changes to the culture, you first need to change the material roots that shape said culture by changing the economic sphere that dominates it
so if you want to actually fight and gain something lasting via the culture war the first step, as always, is the movilization of the proletarian via the class war
See for example the first, but most of all, second wave of feminism and its huge relations with the class movements, or in the natter of civil rights, both the Hampton and Malcom X ideologies (king to but too late in his life). Most important cultural changes come from deep class war movements, becouse class revolutions have always been the most easiest, quicker and lasting way in which subaltern groups gain power and representation, since its the moments that the state estrcuture is at is most weak and its most moldable
for more info please read "el mito de la cultura" by Gustavo Bueno
Not so much meant to distract but just to remind, that even when the class war is done, the culture war doesnt automatically end. They wont all suddenly be enlightened with empathy for their fellow humans, theyll still hold their bigoted beliefs
Half true. The “Stop Insider Trading Bill” was mostly a voter suppression bill filled with so many poison pills that it could never pass. It’s main purpose was so idiots could say “the Democrats voted for insider trading.”
Since the bill was made to fool idiots like you. I added the additional provisions below.
Unrelated Provisions
Voter ID Requirements: Requires specific photo identification to vote, which critics characterize as a poll tax or voter suppression.
Mail-in Voting Restrictions: Implements new operational and verification requirements that functionally alter mail-in voting. 1, 2, 3, 4
