The problem of politics today is that there's no longer a left. The classical european social democracy has evolved to neoliberalism, so there's no difference from the right. In the usa, democrats are the champions of neoliberalism. So when people want to vote against neoliberalism, they just vote against neoliberal parties. But the problem is that the other party, is not a left party. Le Pen, Farage, Trump, are not the left, far from it.
In the usa there is a mobilization against Trump, the so called "resistance". What I'm going to try to explain here is that it's not a left movement either. It's an identity politics neo marxism. And marxism is not a left party because it's not even democratic.
Basically speaking, how alienation is treated defines politics. When you feel alienated from the world, you can blame the world, or you can blame yourself. If you blame the world, that's marxism, if you blame yourself (taking responsibility from your own acts, taking freedom as the essence of life), that's liberal democracy.
"Karl Marx's theory of alienation describes the estrangement (Ger. Entfremdung) of people from aspects of their Gattungswesen ("species-essence") as a consequence of living in a society of stratified social classes. The alienation from the self is a consequence of being a mechanistic part of a social class, the condition of which estranges a person from their humanity."
This idea is developed with the substructure and superstructure theory.
The substructure defines the superstructure. The substructure consists on the "relations of production" (proletariat-bourgeoisie, private property, etc), the superstructure consists on the ideology (politics, philosophy, etc).
So, in order to solve the alienation, the substructure that causes it must be changed. This is the only way of solving the problem, because the individual is just a mechanistic part, he doesn't have the power, the freedom, to do it for himself.
In the classical marxism, the substructure is materialistic: the forces and relations of production—employer–employee work conditions, the technical division of labour, and property relations.
In this new marxism this substructure has been replaced by identity politics: gender, race, religion, etc. The enemy is no longer capitalism or the bourgeoisie but the heteropatriarchy or white supremacy.
These protests against Trump, like a multicultural project mayhem, are not democratic in nature. They just want to impose their vision regarding identity politics. And if that vision is questioned, any criticism is disregarded as oppressive.
It's shocking to see a woman that wears hijab and defends sharia law pontificating about freedom and respect.
I think, on the contrary, that the essential problem is that alienation is not due to a substructure, being that racism, heteropatriarchy or whatnot. And that these "political protests" are just the psychological projection of an inferiority complex, a multitudinous group therapy.
So in the end it's just a rhetoric fight between neo-fascists and neo-marxists where the old left-right debate is long gone.
