yeah Jacobin can be real dumb from time to time and there is kind of a problem where the left accepts right-wing framing of things

but still lol at handwringing over the alt-left and comparing them to loving nazis

What's scary is Trump just sees this as his moment in the sun. The one bright spot in his time as President so far. He's a business man and he's already doing the math "One dead Seal got me all that praise. Imagine a 100! Or a Thousand! I need to call Matis. Let's get going on Iran or somewhere. Knock this Russia bullshit off the front pages and get some good press for a change..."

"Identity Politics" is a loving stupid term because literally all politics is about identity, especially since the people who say it most follow an ideology based entirely around class identity

I really don't think the thesis of the post you are responding to was "but it was a 4chan hoax"

"no 4chan hoax, no 4chan hoax, you're a 4chan hoax"

the people who say it most are actually trumpists, the majority of Bernie people love social justice poo poo

the idea that there is a divide between idpol and ecpol is a lie meant to discredit one or the other of them depending on the speaker
