I think there’s a lot in that. I appreciate what belboid is saying, and some of what she says isn’t nuanced and yeah, I get that it sounds like a badly edited teenager essay now it’s been pointed out.
But on the other hand it’s genuinely one of the first videos I’ve watched that tries to pull an argument together against this IDPol shit from a left perspective and not an alt-right one. So I don’t care if it’s wobbly or shonky at least it’s a start!
I recall that this - link - was the first thing I read to critique idpol from a class perspective. Just a couple of years ago. Before this I'd defend idpol because they were on my side (the left) and I felt I had to take that side against the alt-right. This article challenged me because it made arguments I'd usually associated with the alt-right (criticising idpol) but doing so from a socialist position.
