Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Debunking the disingenuous claim that the left has shifted focus away from class and onto racism due to some psyop (substackcdn.com)

I don't understand how you can talk about race without talking about class. The claim that the left only cares about racism is explicitly racist and class reductionist. The NYT has got nothing to do with it. If these political spectrum discourses have any meaning or substance at all, the NYT is clearly right wing.

If anything, the focus of the NYT was to divide people on the matters of race in response to the protests. I think it's interesting to correlate this with the Wall Street protests.
