The State Of The Left In Britain

AA | 05.03.2003 09:19

If the Truth hurts..Prepare for Pain!

The Left in Britain is based upon barely disguised hatred to the odd working class activist that does get involved. What this middle class shit bags wont face up to is that THEY benefit from OUR oppression. So faced with the tension between professing a 'socialist' creed and the reality of their oppressive reality what do they do?
Well trivalise class as unimportant compared to an abstract notion of race (abstract cos they see all Black/Asian etc people as a monolithic entity all equally suffering from racism)..and demonise white workers in the most offensive ways possible..how many times have I heard some leftie/progressive windbag barely conceal their view that if you are White and Working-class you are automatically a racist, thick, violent and good for only being a member of the BNP..
..The truth is that these middle class scumbags wouldnt last 5 minutes on any council estate I could mention. To them if you are White and Working class then your skin colour means you cant complain. F**K YOU..being White didnt give us any privledges! We have to fight (and yes sometimes literally so as all the crime is herded on to our homes) for everything we got..but do we get 'regeneration' money? You must be joking!
No doubt there will be a load of posters claiming im a BNP supporter (er NO!) or a State agent stirring (er grow up! You left rabble are NO threat to the State!)..in fact anything rather than wake up to reality! My only crumb of comfort is that other White Workers will wake up and spend what spare time we have building something in our coummunities and tell the middle class left one day there will be a settling of accounts for their snobby hate towards us

Look, assuming you really are anti-BNP, can I suggest you give some thought to whose world-view you're getting drawn into when you start writing about 'White Workers'?

Unity?

I must only be speaking for myself when I hope we can stop fighting each other, and band together in loosely based support groups to tackle the issues.

People are so dismissive of each other an affective reistance seems so distant its depressing.

I am a working class man, who would love not to have to endure wage slavery, but I feel the ruling class should be subject to our scorn, not each other.

Alternatively we could just play in to their hands, by having petty digs at each other, and further alienating ourselves.

Its up to us, I suppose.

FACTS

05.03.2003 15:09

I see rather then rebut ANY of the points I make it is simply asserted that im in the BNP! I said in my posting that middle class lefties view White Workers as BNP anyway. So what do you middle classes lefties do to show how wrong I am??? Er you accuse me of being BNP!
Oh and its really touching how a few of you have written ini saying 'im poor and am some shite who lives in dundee' give you a little thrill did it to pretend to be a Worker? bet you sing and dance to Pulp as well!
If I had put Black you'd be creaming it in delight..so why should White cause you to explode? Is being White illegal now? Hypocrites!

what are u trying to achieve?

05.03.2003 15:45

the reason people were saying that u seemed to be BNP is because you're making a big deal about WHITE workers uniting etc...why white workers? why not workers...

i could write about how i'd love to round up jews and kill them, then say, 'i bet u'll just accuse me of being a nazi, but i'm not'...people will then reply 'but you clearly are a nazi' then i can write back 'see, told you you'd call me a nazi'
what is your point?

other working people reply to u and you denounce them as fakes! then you continue your rant about race, i don't see what you're trying to achieve? the only solidarity you'er gonna find if you treat people like that is from racists who share your fundamentalist views...

what points did u make that we failed to rebut? that whites get sh*t on more than others? well, whatever the daily mail tells you, the facts are v.different

Prolier than thou.

Yes AA, you're right. You and you alone are the authentic voice of the WHITE working class. Everyone else is a slimy hypocritical fake. Well done.

Go and congratulate yourself and leave the rest of us to get on with some real work.

And I have no idea how long YOU'D actually last on a real working class estate if you step to people in person the way you're brave enough to on the web.

Are you a fash? I dunno.
Are you a tedious, self-righteous pain in the balls? Too right.

AND another thing
