bro who is putting that in video games
Oh look, the Cultural Marxism conspiracy theory.
I think you've been consuming too much Jordan Petersen.
That whole theory was rooted in anti-semitism and some weird mistrust that Jews were imposing culture on them. It's the biggest load of baloney.
Provide the documentation. What does intersectionality have to do with Marxian economics? What authors have you read who discuss both?
Have you read Women, Race and Class?
Where are you finding chapters of Davis’s work on marxists.org? I found an article discussing her work on there, but I believe most of her work is still under copyright. I have a hard copy of Women, Race and Class myself.
What would you argue Davis’s main point in that book is?
That’s fascinating that you feel the need to lie about books you’ve read. Anyone who has actually read Women, Race, and Class would be talking about the dynamics of slavery - that’s kind of the major exploration of the book.
Why lie? Why project and accuse me of lying? Are you so threatened by ideas that you disagree with that you can’t engage with them at all?
These have always been present in history, both in fact and fiction. Greeks vs Persians, Amazonians, China vs Western world (think Opium Wars and Boxer revolution), etc... These issues have always been there, this isn't something new to the modern world and there are stories that have been around just as long with these same subjects.
Or it matches the more modern world. Today, more people can travel and move to different countries. More and more places have more and more people of different backgrounds, race, gender, sexuality that are in the public view. To not put these people in is to not understand today's world and the people in it. Go outside and really look around, see how many people now don't look like you, don't dress like you and/or don't act like you. Also, keep in mind where the games you are comparing them to are made, and understand what the developers see in their day to day life because that is more in line with what they'd know.
