War and Pieces posted:true but only liberals call it intersectionality Fisher is also pretty clear about this in his essay quote:I’ve noticed a fascinating magical inversion projection-disavowal mechanism whereby the sheer mention of class is now automatically treated as if that means one is trying to downgrade the importance of race and gender. In fact, the exact opposite is the case, as the Vampires’ Castle uses an ultimately liberal understanding of race and gender to obfuscate class. In all of the absurd and traumatic twitterstorms about privilege earlier this year it was noticeable that the discussion of class privilege was entirely absent. The task, as ever, remains the articulation of class, gender and race – but the founding move of the Vampires’ Castle is the dis-articulation of class from other categories.

Cuttlefush posted:i had a friend convince me to read through capitalist realism and i don't think it was terrible but you're probably better off just reading actual theory if you want to try to make sense of anything. fun titles though. I don’t think anyone would suggest fisher as a substitute for actual theory, but it’s a nice introduction that will hopefully lead people to it. There was another thread where someone told me a lot of cspam posters were “baptized” into the concept of leftist L’s by the Bernie loss and I don’t think the answer is always “go read all of Marx + Lenin”. The contemporary analyses will at minimum get people curious about the core ideas and hopefully engaging with/exploring them.
