Pseudo-left
Revision as of 04:22, 2 December 2022 by Robert Brockway (talk | contribs)
Pseudo-left is a term used by certain socialist groups to refer to other socialist group that embrace identity politics. This is because it is claimed that the groups embracing identity politics have strayed from the roots of socialism.
The World Socialist Web Site (WSWS) explicitly rejects identity politics, calling it anti-Marxist.[1] The WSWS refers to socialist groups that embrace identity politics, such as Red Flag, as pseudo-left.
This is indicative of an internal conflict inside the left over identity politics.
