> Which boils down to this: CRT/BLM is supported by left-wing. So if I am critical of CRT/BLM, then I must be right-wing, and the fact that I even want to discuss this topic means that the discussion is ‘political’.
I've noticed this with ... certain other politicized topics. I'm very left-wing, so it's always amusing being accused of being right-wing by woke fanatics because I happened to disagree with them on some issue. Even if I approach it from a left-wing, anti-capitalist point of view. If it doesn't match what they've been told to think on social media, then that's it - an enemy is speaking, full of evil and malice.
It's all getting quite ridiculous.
- renewedrebecca 4y agoDefine "woke".
- Scali 4y agoSome will agree, some won't. This is a good watershed moment to cut off the ones that won't.
- undersuit 4y agoThe quoted point is wrong though! CRT isn't supported by the left wing, it's simply been trashed by the right. BLM isn't supported by the left wing. We are simply standing in opposition of loud forces on the right. BLM isn't a typical top-down organization. There may be a BLM recognized by the government but they aren't the ones that were organizing. I don't think Scali is right-wing because they are critical of things they don't understand, but if they keep siding with right-wing factions I do have to make a judgement. >Even if I approach it from a left-wing, anti-capitalist point of view. I would love for you to do this on this new account with only one comment.
