    Yeah I’m generalizing a bit and obviously people irrespective of their identities can resonate with a variety of humors. I’m mainly talking about my own personal circle which has a lot of radlib feminists who are always on the cusp of a radicalizing breakthrough. But whenever we end up talking politics and I start giving my analysis of anything their complaints to me are always that Marxism is so “white dude heavy.” I always point out that there are plenty of feminist Marxists to learn from but they’re so resistant to studying any actual theory that at this point that I’ve just chalked it up to laziness/privilege/disinterest. But still, I’m always trying to nudge them in the direction of accessible ways to learn whenever it comes up.

    All I’m saying is that The Deprogram would definitely not be their show and it would be nice to find an alternative which is just as entertaining and accessible.
