Melissa Harris-Perry was lauded as a leading intersectionlist at the same time she aggressively defended
the government’s right to intercept and record every email, text
message, phone call and electronic brain fart on the planet and store
them for future inspection. Democracy Now, which has given more air time
to intersectionality than perhaps anybody refused to cover the lynching and ethnic cleansing of black Libyans
during Obama’s 2012 war on that unhappy country even though they had a
correspondent on the ground. To this day DemocracyNow dependably spouts US propaganda justifying Obama’s and Trump’s war on Syria. Angela Davis gets credit for being a leading proponent of intersectionality too, even though like hordes of other intersectionalists, she lost her mind
over Barack Obama. All these people are examples of intersectionalists,
with bigger audiences and far more visibility than left feminists are
likely to achieve any time soon. When bona fide left feminists defend
the word intersectionality and call themselves intersectional they
confuse the lazy, the naive or unwary, they surrender their own
credibility to the anti-socialist intersectionalists, and they provide
protective cover to the eggs of these brood parasites. It doesn’t have
to work that way.
