#look it's been a weird few days and i think for me serious reflection on parasocial and cult like dynamics on this webbed site but also just
#. leftblr and left social media in general
#and how i genuinely have a pretty deep regret at things i followed along with or just went. oh that's someone else whos' In the Trenches'
#politics that's THEIR EXPERIENCE rather than trusting my own gut and experience
#but posting and dealing with anything genuinely is so loaded right now that a) solidly less than 20% of the content and discussion going on
#is about what IMHO needs to be on the table which is the fact the person in general became a MASSIVE political influence on this site
#ship drama i don't care. tankie politics combined with presenting themselves as a massive expert on decolonial leftist praxis
#and pan africanism as well as mixing in some fairly antisemitic content. that i DO
#but it's being swallowed out by people who want to start diving into race science or blame deflection and that makes it.... so much harder
#to pick apart.
#as one of the actual mixed race actual jewish people here (and there are not that many of us) it is SO difficult to pick apart because
#suddenly all these white people on either side of the argument have all these unseen jewish friends and friends of color they want to pull o
#out and virtue signal with. and it sucks
#it sucks because a huge part of the person in questions' popularity to begin with came from them addressing in some way actual issues within
#fandom. racism has always been an issue in this fandom. from the start. it's been an issue
#if there hadn't been that foothold for them to begin with they wouldn't have gotten where they did. which is not an apology for their behavi
#our in any way. or my own. but it is an important recognition of the multi causal issues that Got Us Here
#so yeah. i would say a lot more on this issue and len's specific politics but it would requrie diving into what are IMHO genuinely some of
#THE MOST nuanced political issues in the modern left and that's not what fandom's into right now when i see takes like the ones i saw this
#morning and people want to rebut her with a top joe pornathon or whatever
