so, demonyo, let’s dwell on this point for a moment yes?

the magna carta. who’s rights did it protect? the church and 25 barons or something?

the forefathers that bytor likes to invoke to justify the gun violence epidemic— who’s rights did they claim?

their own.

not women, not lower class people, not slaves

the history of the enlightment consists of the expansion of these individual rights to larger and larger groups. through hard fought struggle.

liberté, fraternité... yes.

égalité... not so much

so we purportedly arrive to our era as a detribalized society yes?

nooooo.... we arrive to our era tribalized in the image of the male dominated european tribe that colonized the planet.

it’s hard to see if you’re in that tribe.

but our modern society that the youtube guy you like celebrates... it not really universal yet

does not include a lot of people

and those people want in!

the reason identity politics “retribalize” is because many tribes were left out of the “supreme individual rights” tribe.

oh yes.

OUT.

we can’t really be one tribe until we really incorporate everyone

otherwise it is —yes— oppression
