One thing he says which I found interesting is that men in women IN GENERAL behave very differently together. I noticed some female colleagues who clearly hadn’t seen each other for a while *hug*, then say “How’s the baby? / “How’s so-and-so?” etc — all very feelings & relationships centred..

And yet, it is not liberation from a traditional narrative of feminine identity, more a reproduction of women’s role as mother (the mother is now the manager). What we don’t seem to be able to do is move beyond this gender binary entirely, which would require socialism.

These new very female-dominated corporate administration cultures are very premised on non-hierarchical values of ‘connecting’, ‘sharing’, ‘linking up’, having meetings and so on — a kind of female-code maternalism enlarged from the home to the state & corporation..

And the militarism gets sublimated into computer games, action movies, rock bands, blah blah blah. Conversely, for centuries women were confined to the domestic sphere to provide unpaid labour for male workers, and also to produce more workers..

That is, we literally did mediate our relationships via things — the commodity produced from collective labour — or military conscription. Today, a lot of that has gone. Manufacturing has collapsed in the west, and people can be killed with drones or the press of a button…

Secondly, I am not convinced this observable *general* difference reflects innate biological predispositions in men and women. And neither is it that us men are simply frightened of appearing gay — that is a crassly insufficient explanation imo..

..Men, on the other hand, IN GENERAL do not do this. We mediate our relationships through interests, hobbies. I started to reflect on my friends who I’ve know since school, and to this day, in our WhatsApp group, we 95% talk about music and movies..

Human beings are a bit like coyotes in that they can operate both on their own in groups, but on social media, the computer scientist Jaron Lanier says, the ‘pack switch’ is flipped. Anyone who doesn’t fit with the pack is turned on or ostracised. This is true in rw spaces & lw spaces.

Just been told, by a white person, that race is scientifically real & that I should listen to the indigenous folk wisdom of non-white people and that this is progressive. No, I’ll read black intellectuals like Fanton, Douglass and Barbara Fields not do some racist noble savage bullshit thanks.

There are times on here when I’m not quite sure of the difference between a reactionary worldview and a ‘progressive’ one. What the fuck is ‘inigeneity’? Do we really want to go down a blood and soil route hmm? Callipers but WOKELY.
