i tried reading D&D for the first time in like a year a few days ago and it was gross. rape apologists/tara is a liar/a little bit of rape is ok, russian bots/plant poo poo, cops are good just a few bad apples, etc.

I haven’t been back since they chased me out. I really don’t understand why instead of probing me 100 times they didn’t just tell me to go to CSPAM. I had to wander in on my own and was like.......it’s so good!!!!!

that thread seems like a mostly reasonable foray into the present class angst on the post-New Left left, except for calling trump clever lol

class signifiers and tribal language are real issues in left-wing organisations, and actual working people are often left out to a disquieting degree. a lot of this has to do with the erosion of working-class dignity and the weakness of working-class institutions, but much is also based on the snobbery and prudishness of parts of the academic left

He probably technically means another term beginning with sub- (subduct?), but Latin-derived words are malleable enough that the context can convey the meaning.

oh yeah it's funny to dunk on them + they're the enemy

i do still think the notion that many workers feel 'closer' to a petit-bourgeois schmuck who's basically lucked into a modest fortune than they do to a lot of the cultural vanguards on the left has something to it, but it sort of presupposes the final death of working-class pride and takes as a premise that class mobility is sufficient to address inequality. this is a very common ideology, but it's also pretty hosed up

yeah I can look at the freshman class of the Commons after the uk '45 election and think there's absolutely no way to get that kind of working-class representation in politics anymore

Thanks, I'll check that out. Sometimes I wish there was a big index of all the Chapo guest appearances. I used to collect such episodes obsessively but I guess I just chilled out about it because I have more important things to do.

That and "metabolize" and a few other words he uses often. Sometimes I want to mentally edit his jargon into something a little more straightforward, but that's the workerist in me.

I was listening while gaming (Virgil would have wanted it that way) but iirc jamie sounded sympathetic to the harm reduction argument while virgil and sean made the point that the left is expected to just vote for biden in exchange for nothing. I may be misremembering, they also talked over her a lot which sucked, but overall very good episode
