    There has always been a divide and culture war. This is not a new concept.

    What is new is how behind the scenes it's a lot more scarier than people want to admit.

    I could go on and on about this but here's a TL;DR in video format, less than 2 minutes.

    The culture war and stupid identity politics (a lot of idpol is good and necessary but some of this s*** is silly) is just a way for highly educated people to out virtue each other

    What matters on the ground is access to healthcare, jobs, investment and labour relations

    No one on the street gives a sodding f*** whether you think math is racist (the left) or whether the left want to cancel Christmas (the right).

    They just want some f***ing security and relief in their lives

  • f they didn’t divide they couldn’t conquer

    Yes, to the point they wish death, and it should never come to that point.

    Take a look at the game developers, they pandered to minority groups when white male gamers were fragile about their spaces being invaded. Cool, f*** how they feel when minority groups deserve to be in these spaces as well. But then came about these "male feminists" saying the dumbest s*** trying to win over women, same said white males knew these guys were full of s*** and tried to say it's not really diverse and progressive when it's all white men in senior and leadership roles, therefore the pandering was cheap and they got further gaslighted. They got shunned and some years go by, same white male feminists got outed for sexual harassment, sexual assault and even some had possession of child p*rn*gr*phy.

    Fast forward to Activision, the truth comes out. Nothing has really changed and it's all optics.

    This is a repost from another thread but the documentary explains how right wing media changed all media
    At 1:14:40 an author explains what the Fox Effect is

    Right wingers uses racism/bigotry to their advantage,
    Democrats may not be active enough but the other side is actively promoting hate
    They created media for it
    Here's a well made documentary on the subject

    The filmaker interviews writers, scientists, historians on how right wing media came to be and how they brainwash people (including her own father) to be bigots

    Change is more than empty symbolism
    Demand action, demand action that requires excruciating work that pays well off for decades to pass.

    Reject tokenism, that's a bandaid solution.

    Don't have a victim-like mindset, it's self-defeating and self-cancelling, it's not empowering.

    No they don't, and I'd argue you don't follow either considering your post history and when you were mod on KTT1, you were mad authoritative with it, I'm assuming you have changed, but this is a necessary thread whether you agree or not.

    You are entranced in identity politics, you view things in a narrow lens, and when someone presents you with information challenging your views you get upset.
