They want separate ethnostates and think the Nazis will leave them be when all the Muslims are gone.

people seem to want to characterize the BJP as ethno-nationalist but that doesn't really track because india is so ethnically and linguistically diverse and the religious freaks are represented in basically every state and province, including ones that you might think of as out-group

it's also not a caste or class thing either, b/c from what i remember modi is from a modest background

yeah its pretty maddening that you can simultaneously be an influential thinking voice on the right and also insanely loving dumb because the way the world works is already overwhelmingly in your favor and it doesnt matter if you know a goddamn thing about anything anyway lol

It's actually necessary. The fascist mythos precludes you from having realistic expectations of your street action. You can't rally fascists without promising that your natural superiority will lead you to an easy victory. Every antifascist goes to these actions with the knowledge that they could be the next Heather Heyer. Every fascist goes to these actions with the expectation that they will sweep the limp wristed degenerates aside and march to glory. When it doesn't happen their lizard brains take over.

Best thing to do is to start showing up at protests and volunteering for causes that you care about. If you keep showing up you'll find what you're looking for.

identify a protest/counterprotest in your area, and go to it. if you really wanna make friends bring a bunch of bottled water.

you don't wanna join any group that recruits other than in person

There's groups like DSA and SRA that likely have a local chapter near you where you can meet likeminded people. In my area those groups don't officially participate in or signal boost specific anti-fascist actions, you have to keep your ear to the ground to keep up with demonstrations and counter-protests. My local IWW twitter account is the most reliable follow I've found for that, but it seems like DSA does a good job of it some other places.

Hmm I’ve never heard of this guy. I wonder what

quote:

One of my sons found himself involved in the disciplinary process by goofing off during a free study period; instead of reading, completing homework, or some such thing, he and his friends utilized the school’s computer network to produce and disseminate dozens of memes. Summoned to a meeting with the principals, I was presented with a fairly thick folder filled with printed copies of this wastage, most of which ranged from the innocuous to the faintly embarrassingly silly, but some of which clearly passed over the boundary into edgelord racist territory. My countenance collapsed. I was mortified, praying silently that my son had neither originated nor disseminated the offensive memes

quote:

We have always made plain to our children that alt-right racialist discourses and identity politics alike are dubious, and to be rejected, on theological, ethical, and political grounds. Our parish is diverse. Our neighbourhood is diverse. All of the quaint towns and neighbourhoods we like to visit, in the major regional city and the surrounding counties, are strongholds of professional middle class liberalism, of the sort that generated the p***yhat protests of January 2017.

quote:

Secondly, however, the identity politics theorists give the game away themselves, most blatantly in their employment of the ‘privilege’ framing. The cash-value of all of that turgid verbiage, in the end, as shown in the CA curriculum, is that those bearing the ascriptive identity characteristics of “whiteness” are called upon to use their ‘privilege’ by renouncing it, relinquishing power and position to, and in solidarity with, those in every pullulating category of marginalization. In practice, there is no dialectical transition, as required by the steel-man argument for identity politics, from the multiplication of identity characteristics/mediations to a universal humanity which has transcended such finite categories. There is only the assumption that, because bearers of one bundle of ascriptive identity characteristics have been ‘first’, and bearers of others have been ‘last’, now the ‘first’ shall be ‘last’ and the ‘last’ ‘first’. That is all there is.

quote:

Capitalism wants certain frictions eliminated, because it is profitable to do so, and it wants others to remain, because frictions create the opportunity for arbitrage. The pseudo-left advocates of identity politics don’t actually wish for a universal and abstract humanity, merely to invert certain historical relations of which they disapprove. And, in any event, both a frictionless economy and a universal humanity are impossible. Even were the nomadic economic Multitude to come into being, it could never move with the speed of Capital, and so labour arbitrage would always be possible; and even that nomadic economic Multitude would not be a universal humanity, but a vast horde of people, of every conceivable identity mediation, subject to the same economic coercions and imperatives.
