#Disaccommodation #classposture articulates a distinct material relation—a lumpen habitus that may inhabit simultaneously the same body with #perquisitive, #conveyancée and #conquistadas classpostures.
To be without accommodation, to be unaccommodated, to be nuisance to those who glorify their own exploitation, is to be ontologically incommensurate with duo-dualism that is anti-capitalist lore.
The lumpen—too déclassé for class analysis—are denied agency by theory of categorical consciousness.
Which is to say, #RentierSociety is not capitalist society, yet neither any sort of "neo"-feudalism.
Where estates of the realm checked power of king by checking the power of each the other…
Estates of rentier society check power of each #classposture which #tensegrity cultivates for #RentBounty harvest…
Very power of those so subjugated being the crop: #conveyancée, levied for exchange value; #disaccommodation, tilled for #EgoValue; #conquistadas, reproductive labor-power, itself, harnessed.
How #lumpentheory understands power in #RentierSociety:
We speak of five classpostures: oligarch, #perquisitive, #conveyancée, #disaccommodation, and #conquistadas.
We speak of five estates: the #KayfabePanto, those of oligarch #classposture, those of perquisitive classposture, the consensus media, and armed enforcement.
Note partial overlap. Unlike the estates of the realm, wherein the third estate were the Commons, in rentier society most classpostures… have no estate.
This is #tensegrity.
Thing about ableist tropes is that they're often templates for other prejudices.
"I don't understand why you don't just do what I do. It's easy for me. Therefore you shouldn't have a problem. It's a non-issue."
Chronic illness. Homelessness. Racialization. Poverty & debt. Sexism. Transphobia. Xenophobia in all forms.
#disaccommodation #classposture & #conquistadas classposture
Those people are complaining for no comprehensible reason. I don't have a problem, so obviously they don't either. 🤔
On abjectification (#disaccommodation #classposture and #conquistadas classposture)... and other topics.
But mostly abjectification, although it ought also be noted that the philosophical term "phantasm" also describes much of anti-capitalist discourse and politics. One's #KayfabePanto opposition ain't got the monopoly on such spectral signification.

Clearing Bedouin encampments.
Clearing homeless encampments.
Clearing protest encampments.
The same #compliancism.
The same #perquisitive #classposture #EgoValue underwritten.
The same #colonialism of dispossession.
The same #RentierSociety.
Clearly.
#disaccommodation & #conquistadas classpostures
Where #disaccommodation #classposture reflects diversion and obstruction of reproductive labor, #conquistadas classposture embodies dissipation and obliteration of reproductive labor-power.
Incarceration, Foxconn dorms, food deserts, driving-while-Black, prohibition of abortion and trans lives, remote nursing homes, long commutes & RTO—all span spectrum of conquistadas conditions.
Such that even those who codeswitch to perquisition cannot entirely escape structural foreclosure of care itself.
Fascism, said Zetkin, was "movement of the hungry, the suffering, the frustrated"—not exclusively proletariat.
Lumpen feature here also—if we've eyes to see them.
Class-categories of Marxism color our vision. Squinting through such lens, one sees petite bourgeoisie.
Yet trifocals of #classposture reveal #conveyancée, #disaccommodation, #conquistadas—each code-switched with #perquisitive classposture.
Folk hungry, suffering, frustrated by unfulfilled retrofuture promises of #FrosteanBargain.
Atlanta and Gaza are threads of the same #tensegrity bind:
The fifth estate—armed enforcement—as embodiment of colonial praxis.
Symbolic labor in maintenance of #conquistadas and #disaccommodation classpostures⋯
Which at once corroborates #compliancism for those of #conveyancée #classposture⋯
Even as it underwrites #EgoValue for those of #perquisitive classposture.
This is how it must be for #RentierSociety to harness gravity to hold itself aloft: ever falling into stability.
@[email protected] Hence the need for a #lumpentheory that begins its critique not with the glorification of work and the worker vis-à-vis capitalist exploitation, but instead with the #ableism, the eugenics, the #whiteness, that binds and holds fast those of #conveyancée, #disaccommodation and #conquistadas #classposture vis-à-vis colonial extraction.
Any move to elide or erase dispossession—as Marx did with his "passive decaying matter"—is #eugenicist at its core. Such cannot be our starting point.
