since candace owens and blexit are trending, here's malcolm x talking about the profound underlying self-hatred she and other alt-right black conservatives have, as they use and sell their blackness to prop up white supremacy for personal profit

whenever I post anything related to malcolm x a rabid horde of brainwashed magaite freaks come crawling out of the woodwork to claim he actually would hate blm and love trump. see the thread below for why that's deranged: he was a socialist revolutionary

candace owens and blexit trending is a good occasion to share malcolm x's great analysis of what they are but the contemporary iteration of, a type that's existed since the days of slavery, using one's blackness to prop up white supremacy for personal gain

the materialist critique of a fixed "human nature" which liberal and conservative hacks employ as their main argument against communism does not stop at social pathologies like racism/misogyny/homophobia. this kind of essentialist idealism is inimical to emancipatory politics
it's also not taken seriously by anyone. that warrenite liberal guy does not actually believe that people are born nazis and will forever remain nazis. otherwise he'd be denouncing people like ex-nazi leader and now anti-nazi educator christian picciolini as some evil monster
saying stuff like "these evil people are born evil and they are destined to remain evil no matter what!" is, in terms of epistemic content, the equivalent of "I *really* don't like these people!", it's empty sloganeering, though it appeals to a fixed conception of human nature

and as always when I post something by malcolm, it gets swarmed by right-wing magaite freaks who have been brainwashed by candace owens into thinking he would have loved trump. see this thread for why that's asinine garbage:

it's not hard to imagine at all. any reporter who would be in the position of hosting a presidential debate, no matter what color or gender, would behave in roughly the same way, *because they are pre-selected for this starting from journalism school to their current job*
this kind of race essentialism is so fucking bizarre. it flies in the face of everything we know. like, we know what a joy reid believes and does. we know what a lester holt believes and does. we literally see it every day. they are not malcolm x. jesus christ
sorry, women and minorities in the professional media class are not exempt from the propaganda model because of some special magical attribute: they are all filtered and selected *for their political views*

the reason you never find leftists grifting by cosplaying as right-wingers but there's a huge market in right-wingers cosplaying as contrarian leftists is bc the latter are parasites too cowardly to openly come out with their politics, which is uncool in their elite social circle
dave rubin, jordan peterson, ayishat akanbi: all they're doing is going "it's ok, it's ok, I know *it looks like* I'm saying the exact things maga republicans are saying thinly veiled in pseudo-left rhetoric, but your eyes are actually deceiving you. I'm neither left nor right!"
as their brand becomes oversaturated the grift runs its course and they have to go full mask-off. rubin/peterson hit that a while back. akanbi will go full candace owens too once that stage is reached. but they have to squeeze every drop out the grift first
