Watch the whole video before commenting. As I’ve expressed in the past, I don’t self-identify as a "leftist" because I believe it's too broad to meaningfully...
Me too. As are most people that you’ll currently encounter on lemmy.
I don’t expect sympathy, and when I get it I suspect an ulterior motive on the part of the person offering it.
I meant more in the sense of “sympathy strike” rather than “sympathetic ear”. It’s useful to be able to collaborate with others on shared goals, both in pursuit of the anarchist cause and of one’s personal interests. An attitude of “only class matters, shut up about feminism or queer liberation or whatever” is detrimental to said collaboration.

True, but I’m not interested in collaborating with online “activists”, especially if they jump into my mentions on an unrelated topic for a bit of sealioning. At that point they’re fair game for trolling, and telling them that their concerns mean no more to me than mine do to them is both true, and a generally reliable tactic.

Fair enough.
