Go on youtube and search about Disney’s latest failure Elemental and you get all these insane videos about “Woke Disney” made by people who talk exclusively about the “woke mob”.

Ever heard of Yellowflash, Clownfish TV, and those other reactionaries? I first heard about them during the Vic Mignogna drama. (whether those accusations are true or not is another discussion, but it made reactionaries insane).

    Given that these extreme reactionaries have such differing opinions on how and what to do, yet still manage to oppress people so quickly, I wonder how we’re not managing to organize ourselves

      I have thought about this idly a lot and I wonder if the crux of the matter isn’t violence. Reactionaries are indiscriminately violent. They will use violence against their enemies, themselves, everyone; it doesn’t matter to them. They are all singularly united on that front, without question. This is, as history makes evident, not sustainable, but I really do think that’s the heart of it. In the imperial core, at least, any progressive movement does not appear to have this, nor even a hint of response to it, lacking any sort of vanguard. We are not unified on method, to speak nothing on goals, but even the most heinous skinhead thugs and the most timid of right-wing decorum-obsessed politicians have the same means to any end, and it is a simple one: violence.
