I have seen plenty of brocialists and class reductionists recently, some of them here on this very topic. They go around saying shit like maybe trans rights shouldn’t be an important issue (See Today in Transphobia for why it should be an important issue.) They go around dismissing anything relating to feminism because some feminists aren’t socialists. Michael Harriot brings another concerned view, that they are unconcerned about racism as long as they get what they think they deserve.
I am well to the left of Bernie, and I have my concerns about the brocialist Bernie campaigners. Will they consider the rights of other people to be a bargaining chip to get what they want from conservatives? That has ended badly for everybody in the past, but I expect it to happen again. Because it always happens again.
