#re: previous reblog: this is also why i don't like Anticapitalist Onboarding Rhetoric that borrows the narrative tropes of Grand Conspiracy
#sorry but genuine systemic analysis is fundamentally incompatible with the image of a Secret Room full of malicious cackling puppetmasters
#like is that not the WHOLE POINT..? that there are conditions under which Bad Things can perpetuate themselves absent Bad Actors..?
#(like we could evaporate all Racist People with an anti racism laser tomorrow but b/c of current inequalities in income housing school etc
#without actual wealth redistribution that won't actually FIX the inequality because it's entrenched enough to have become self sustaining)
#idk maybe it just exists disproportionately where i've been looking but i feel like i'm seeing a huge upswing over this past year
#in people who act as if the only two narratives are 'Everything Wrong is Your Own Fault' or 'Someone is Fucking With You on Purpose'
#& i've felt like a crazy person for a while shouting about how leaning into the rhetoric & mentality of the second one is NOT HARMLESS
#just because you point it at some person/people too powerful for you to really materially do harm to.
#(introducing it under those parameters alone doesn't domesticate it! doesn't make it Safe to keep with you in your brain house!)
#like i didnt Really Not Enjoy the gleeful countdowns of 'only x hrs of air left in that submarine lol' b/c of my deep love for billionaires
#but i was struck by how many selfdescribed leftists really do seem to want to act as the agents of an equitable redistribution of suffering
#& that just...doesn't ever lead anyone to good places. & it feels insane that i have to say that lol. but i'm right. & it doesn't.
