full comment here but i think it's not even being "pretty poor in race relations" but instead is just a total misrepresenting of class struggle that older black voters are much more likely to pick up on because white workers have repeatedly betrayed them in the past in exchange for these lofty soc dem reforms that i dont think younger black voters will have picked up on because of how younger white people are becoming much more proletarianized again.

my 2 cents: he's right that bernie sanders doesnt correctly address race issues, but it's because bernie is a soc dem who (whether willingly or mistakenly it doesnt really matter) misunderstands and misrepresents class struggle, and that to actually combat capitalism ignoring/downplaying the racial aspect of classes in capitalism is to totally misrepresent reality and thus have no chance of actually achieving real meaningful progress towards socialism.

even though he does mention that this vid was specifically directed toward electoralists, he still took a shot at revolutionary socialists anyways so alongside him totally ignoring bernie sanders other glaring issues (laptog for imperialism etc.) which arise from the same place as his lack of attention to black issues, i think this was among FD Signifier's bad videos

i didnt really think most of them were living it up (hence the "suffering as much" part of the comment) but i'll admit I havent read nearly enough about this subject so i will defer to you here

many people get material benefits from loving the boot. we must convince them that we can give even better benefits or we will never win.

~~if it helps you feel better i have to imagine many of them are from one of the higher castes so they didnt suffer as much under colonialism as the lowest castes.~~

inaccurate see lussy's comment below

Unfortunately, the ruling classes of the imperial core will use the working class as human shields and pass on as much misery to them as possible (like Thatcher and Reagan but much worse),

i mean this is always true, it's not like during the chinese century of humiliation it wasnt the working class peasants who took by far the brunt of that burden

i would be surprised if this was anyone on the left tbh. like, there have already been a few attempted blue maga shootings/bombings right? just by pure population numbers its much more likely some libs with guns got really inspired by that "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants" quote lol
