The political class to anti-war constituents, "We don't need you."
Opinion: Most young people who identify as Left-wing these days have no idea what Left-wing politics involves.

This goes directly against the fight for workers’ rights; when you have masses of cheap labour coming in willing to work for pennies there is no incentive to raise wages or provide better working conditions for the native population. You cannot support workers rights and mass unskilled immigration - this is a contradiction. > > Same goes for intersectionality - a topic frequently preached about by young left wingers. The idea of dividing people based on race, sexuality, gender to give different levels of oppression goes directly against class unity. The whole point of labour movements is that it doesn’t matter the colour or gender or anything - we all are part of the workers of the world and we must unite to have power against the elites. Intersectionality inherently divides people and destroys class unity. > > I was talking to a younger colleague the other day who would identify as Left-wing and he didnt even realise he could join a union and why thats important. > > I truly belive that the majority of young self identified “left wingers” think that being left wing is just acknowledging people’s pronouns and being nice to trans people. Their knowledge of left wing politics does not expand beyond this. > > Its why, these days, I have trouble calling myself Left-wing because so much nonsense is pushed by young people who identify under this label. > > Sorry - this is kind of a rant I needed to get off my chest but does anyone else here understand where I’m coming from or have anything to add? > > Cheers.
I am frankly surprised at this point that NYT is so tonedeaf they can’t even be bothered to notice that Bret Stephens is actively destroying their reputation and credibility more than it already is
If the Soviet Union existed today, Western leftists would hate it and call it fascist!

As a Russian leftist who has studied the Western left, I can say with complete confidence that the current Western left’s “love” for the Soviet Union is the same as Trotsky’s “love” for Lenin. What do you think about this? How do you think Western leftists would have behaved if the USSR had survived?
It's interesting how the backlash to the manosphere seems to have only reinforced gender essentialism.
