endless Returnism or Hauntological Revisionism whether to the 20th century or the 2010s or early 2020s or whatever your base point of reference is primarily functions as a sign of a moribund movement and a pure survivalism. the worst thing is to be complacent

i dont wanna be mean but we are nowhere near "woke". very little in the 2010s was truly genuinely progressive in a liberatory way. it's all aspiration and that's good but you need to be clear eyed about what you want to build
