Probably in agriculture where tons of food are destroyed to keep prices up. Actually that happens in other commodities too. Look up the amount of stuff that Amazon destroyed on daily basis. We do have the technology to meet everyone's material needs and still reduce productive capacity to stave off climate change at least somewhat.

What does taking your shoes off when entering someone's home has to do with their race? Why would you keep your shoes on, unless specifically asked in the first place?

It is super interesting, but I think most peol that have read some theory or are familiar with history have a good idea about these things (I didn't , but I'm a noob). But from what I gather the problem is that it's very difficult to materialize leaders that won't get got by the state real fast, and the state over the last decades has become insanely good at coopting and subversing such movements, sowing division etc. Until there is a good solution to these issues, or the conditions deteriorate so much that the state can no longer use these tactics, things will remain the same.

Tumblrinaction had a brief moment of.making fun if otherkin, when it actually wasn't super bad even to the people it was making fun of. Kotakuinaction was fucked up from the start

I used to go there, because I was somewhat bothered by the extreme lib side of idpol. Then argued when people got shitty about trans people and so on, that was not obviously a teen fury trying to figure out the world. Then it became downright right-wing hellhole around the time of gamergate... I guess it wasn't super good even before that either...
