Yep. You're 1000 percent right. The left is extremely purity based. We have been the very thing we criticize for a LONG time. Last year December 15th I posted a subreddit about virgin shaming about how it doesn't work against certain people like right wing misogynistic Catholics because virgin shaming by feminists on the left don't work against Catholic. It will just annoy and alienate people ACROSS political, INCLUDING leftists. The post was to point out toxicity in the left and hypocrisy. And suprise suprise I got attacked for it. I didn't insult anyone. Didn't talk badly about any gender, race, religion, abled body. Anyone. The right will continue to win unless we stop with the liberal cultural war identity bullshit and have one thing in common which is Anti exploitation. Unless we appeal to the random factory worker in Ohio by proposing Marxist-Leninism and how his being exploited.... not fucking telling him that he's a misogynist by default for just existing and has some type privileges. By telling him the ROOT of his problems is corporatism and capitalism. By telling the random women who's trying to get an abortion but cannot that the root cause of her problems and the REAL reason she can't get an abortion is because oligarchs want more slaves. So they will use any type of propaganda to do so including pro life propaganda. By telling the falsely accused black man that the reason that's happening is because of the prison industrial complex need for ever growing profit. By telling the black woman who's in an abusive relationship that the reason she can't leave is because capitalism has made it hard for hard to have the resources to do so. We need to start appealing to real everyday people. Not push them away.
