is anyone here actually post-left?
Tbh all these labels like post-left seem in practice like a bunch of hipster and anarchist larping. But I increasingly despise the "left" in the broadest sense of the term (anything from liberalism to anarchism to communism) while appreciating the extremist part of the left. In that sense "post-left" is not a bad term.
What I despise about the left is the utopia of integrating everybody into a single perfect, all-inclusive, good system. The left and the right have the same goal of a perfect system, a "final solution". It's just that their means are different: whereas the left's strategy is integration, the right's strategy is extermination. But both want to get rid of any antagonism, violence, conflict, chance, fate, etc. They both want to get rid of the accursed share. Integration is just a more cunning way of exterminating this accursed share, which is why I despise the left more whereas the right are useful idiots because the effects of their politics are more often ironic and counter-productive.

Maybe your local leftists suck, but not to be a dick, I think you have a lot of residual idealism and liberalism as well. The left in theory should be fighting for self-emancipation and self-determination, with common ownership of property, and the asymptotic abolition of work.
