fukk it, ll say it:
Leftist politics are doomed to fail as long as there is strong intersection with LGBT/Feminism.
Too many doors get open... and arsty fartsy, "but what about OUR FEELINGS??" motherfukkers start waltzing through.
Successful leftist movements throughout the world were led by Poor Lower Class MEN who FIRST accepted the plight of POOR WORKERS, THEN, became enlightened to want to fight alongside female/gay/Jewish/etc people for civil rights and workers rights.
Leading with the idea of "yes fellow worker, we hear you want to end oppression, but have you first checked your own heteronormative, transphobic, privilege and misogynoir, you fukkboi? "
....completely muddles the arguement, gets potential allies on the defensive and worst of all, allows the opportunity for figureheads more concerned with identity politics and courting Limouisine Liberals to take charge instead of dyed in the Wool leftist who are aggressively fighting against Capitalism
