>>408177Sakaism at this point doesn't refer strictly to adherents of Sakai but the entire post-occupy trend of "leftists" who adopt a vulgar third positionst line and combine it with a weird kind of anglo-protestant ultra individualism, moralism & mysticism.They obsess over racialist + gender and sex based politics. Like blackhammer they use anti-colonial language to dismantle anti-imperialist movements and to whitewash/covertly support Imperialism under the guise of "fighting fascists/tankies" (A fascist/tanky being anybody who does not bow to US Empire) and "liberating women/queers".
Colonialism is reduced from it's economic roots to some kind of original sin like mystical ego project on the behalf of whites (which ironically whitewashes colonialism of it's worst crimes), victimhood is mystified and worshipped in this weird pseudo-religious way. To be a colonized person is no longer linked to capital extraction and super-exploitation on a national level, but is robbed of any kind of concrete definition and associated entirely in a magical way with skin colour. IE a black millionaire is inherent "colonized" while a white impoverished prole is inherently tainted and a "colonizer" regardless of the relationship between them or if said "POC millionaire" is a beneficary of said prole's exploitation, even if it occurs on a national level.
Sakaism is bigger than J Sakai or the settlers book, and these people have almost entirely succeded at hijacking the western left and replacing Marxism with their vulgar third positionist racialism & identity based politics with the full backing of US Empire.
