"Socialism is just old white men"

I'm not going to eat vegetables because an old white man (my doctor) told me that I had to (appeal to authority) or I would die (verbal threat)

I hate this liberal idpol sophism. The point of Marxism (etc.) is to be a science. We can and should complain about Darwin being a white chauvinist, but that doesn't mean we throw out evolution or his contributions to it, because the truth of them exist independently of his having said so, as is the point of science! It would be just as absurd to reject using your phone because it is "tainted" by having a touch screen and other parts that were originally invented by white men!

What we should care about with these evaluations is how conducive theories are to the destruction of, for example, white supremacy, by means of practical action aimed at definite ends. I'll be waiting for an approach that is better in this regard than Marxism. Let me tell you, an "ethos" of "service" is not going to cut it when the CIA sends a rightwing death squad to gut you like a fish.

Watch this fucker then rush to embrace white neoliberals who happen to be women

Glad i'm an old white man, i really like this socialism stuff

Shame the current system is so hostile towards us

Its my quote I said it.

Lmao ironically a good bit idea. Yeah she has red scare brainworms and hates China most likely.

When libs try to dunk on socialism and become senator armstrong's left nut in the process.

did you take it more seriously when you thought an old white man said it

No, because it's nonsense either way. Also it's laughable that this person thinks communists are reluctant to argue with dead white men and call them mean names. That's like half of what we do.

Imagine my surprise when I opened the video and it was the whitest women I've seen in months.

this is just la croix anarchism

Old white men racking up another W.

But all actually existing socialist states are nonwhite?

Bizarre chauvinism in a take like that.

This canard is a huge telling-on-oneself deal.

You think we should focus more on BIPOC people and gender diversity? Me too.

You think that socialism is all a bunch of old white men though? It's almost as if you are preferencing white men over the socialists who are BIPOC and of diverse genders. That would mean that you're guilty of the problems you have convinced yourself that you are diagnosing in socialism.

Go read Luxemburg or Krupskaya or Kollontai or Ho Chi Minh or Leslie Feinberg or Mao or Huey P Newton or George Jackson or, of course, Fanon.

As a fellow lazy thinker I'd probably accept an idpol argument against socialism, the only problem is I don't have enough money.

Instead of a old white man, that time was a middle-age white woman. Instead of quote from a book, that have serious science research behind, that time was just words in the wind.
