I think about this quote a lot with regard to the hexbear-type thing of trying to make this hybrid of socialism (i.e economic reform) and american identity politics. Like trying to mix Maoism with this "KKKracka lol" stuff
It's not just this one quote either. A core idea of Maoism is to unite people along class lines only. See also On the Correct Handling of Contradictions Among the People.
Its not a hexbear type thing, the amerikkka stuff comes from the black power movement in the 1960s of which ~~many~~ some (like the black panthers) were influenced by Mao's teachings, thats the origin of the syntesis, not from some site made from a banned subreddit.
theres no reason to assume amerikkka has any connection to Maoists specify. last i checked the earliest source was from a magazine called black socialist world not specifically maoist. so like I cant believe I have to say this but no not all black people are maoist or were influenced by Maoism you cannot assume that to defend your point about how you hate all white people and somehow that HAS to fit into your political ideology. please be serious its aave you people (hexbears) need to stop with this misinfo.
edit to be clear go off on white people, just dont spread misinfo about aave while you do it! also im sorry but this is a basic tenet of maoism. if you disagree with this is think you just dont like maoism, and thats ok!
It's hard for americans to shake essentialist views about race and come to a Marxist understanding –
Their conservatives have essentiallist racist views
The liberal 白左 aren't interested in coming to a correct view – "Our dogmatists are lazy-bones" – they're interested in showing off how good a person they are by howling idealist noises on social media
Both their propaganda mills are pushing them to divide the working class based on race; getting to a correct, structuralist understanding of race is hard.
Also Americans are insular and can't understand that the world ≠ America
Mao is definitely the best path out: the Little Red Book, the Mass Line, On The Correct Handling of Contradictions Among The People.
Unsurprisingly this one seems absent from your curriculum.
Hard pill to swallow maybe is that if you "like" modern China, you can't be a maoist. There's sort of a contradiction in supporting both (I'm not exactly sure what I mean by "support", but, you know....)
Mao underestimsted the power of american racism
