A theme I’m piecing together from yesterday is that capital has so successfully co-opted exploitative versions of grass roots organizing tactics that grass roots organizers are decried as exploiters for even broaching them as useful tactics on legitimate grounds.



Further reduction applied, this can be seen as rejection of the authentic and a demand for the inauthentic.

Authenticity is the a flimsy analysis, stick to fundamentals.
