It would help if leftist identitarians weren't constantly purity spiraling.

They are the ones that coopted and undermined Occupy Wallstreet back in the day.

OWS was run by anarchists. They had zero goals or leadership, and they actually seemed proud of that fact. It's kind of mind-boggling that they thought they could accomplish anything by simply camping out indefinitely.

In view of that, I really can't blame the identitarians for trying to co-opt. If they had won, there would've at least been goals and an agenda, instead of...sitting in tents all day.

Identitarian goals are lib goals, it would have changed nothing the same way Rainbow Oreos change nothing

It would help if people would stop being deliberately obtuse for the sake of sounding intelligent while making a political statement. Wtf does your comment even mean, lol

Maybe if you used google or maybe even chatgpt, you would be able to decipher my "obtuse statement".
