>>837104>"Decolonialism" has been appropriated by liberal institutions to deflect from actual liberatory projects and ideology.The ruling class can't appropriate or co-opt what always belonged to them in the first place. After the Great Recession and Occupy, there was a need to redirect the momentum away from class struggle and towards identitarianism in parallel with the establishment of what would later be known as the "Alt-Right." Naturally, Intersectionality, Decoloniality, "Read Settlers" and Privilege Theory fit that bill. The petit-bougeois milleu that makes up that majority of the established Left in North America and Oceania took it up because it provided a justification for their class' natural contempt towards the proletariat. As a bonus, their anti-Marxism and ethno-nationalism would lead them to support the balkanization of Russia and China as "settler-colonialist", thus serving the interests not only domestically but uniting the "Left" with the aims of NATO and Japan. Their conclusions were always going to be anti-Communist, which is why it was and is so heavily promoted. If Decoloniality was ever a genuine threat to capitalist power, they would have been destroyed.
