Your balanced view has about as much chance of achieving anything as Elizabeth Warren moderate radicalism.

It's easy and compelling to reduce problems to binaries and put yourself on the correct side of the binary, but something being compelling doesn't make it correct.

It's also easy (and frankly facile) to paint anyone calling out any bullshit binary as a #enlightenedcentrist "moderate", but it's not interesting, or useful.

I mean I can do that all day. Online ML kiddos can say "look, you either believe in class struggle or you don't" to anyone even slightly critical of any aspect of the USSR, and feel like they've won the argument. It's a rhetorical trick that a child can pull off, but it doesn't mean you actually have any interesting or useful idea.

It's what you people have been doing since MLK was assassinated, and it's what you're doing today.

Also rhetorical bluster. It sounds compelling but what are you really saying here "People have been trying to solve issues of racism since the 1960s, so it's pointless to talk about it?" Wow, fucking nailed it dude.

There is no way to resolve issues of identity as they're being presented today. There's only a way to endlessly discuss them at the expense of, you guessed it, class issues.

Such a bullshit framing.
