In Part I of this two-part essay, I discussed what I see as a deeply flawed argument put forward by Simon Elmer linking the effects of immigration and ‘woke racism’ to the Great Reset.
Thank you for a comprehensive dismantling of Elmer’s position.
I thoroughly agree with you about the bankruptcy of taking a side in the culture wars. As an unreconstructed Marxist, I see both sides as two sides of the same coin. They both want to make capitalism work and, as such, in their twists and turns become apologists for the worst elements of it.
This was a bloody brilliant response. Elmer is dodgy as F precicely because he throws in a lot of clever and insightful truths that help him push some unhinged state propaganda.
“his own unprocessed vengefulness” - bullseye!
