Of course like all games, a teacher has to regulate the chat as well as the names being used to ensure they’re all appro

The mechanism here is straightforward. If class is the main thing, then you must focus on class and worry less about other oppressions in the name of solidarity. And if that’s the case, then anyone who raises questions about racism in the labor movement is undermining the most important effort. Similarly, raising concerns about sexual harassment in left-wing political campaigns makes you a traitor to the cause. This is why class-first leftists often rail against “identity politics,” buttressing and echoing openly racist and sexist language from the right.

One downside is the ads within the game that waste time — fortunately, they’re only 30 seconds long. And the game ended up being a great incentive for my students. Since all my students completed their assignment and showed greater than normal engagement in my lesson, playing Among Us in class was used as a reward. One of my students, once school ended, told me that he would be playing the game all day, so I’m not sure how much of an incentive it really was, but it helped build relationships between my students and between me and my students.

To be clear, I am not saying class is unimportant. Class is a brutal and pervasive way in which people are exploited, violated, and harmed in our society. Many of the concerns class-first leftists highlight are vitally important, and many of their recommendation are laudable. We need stronger unions. We need full employment. We need free health care. We need to expropriate wealth to end inequality. We need workers to have control of the means of production.

Class-first leftists insist they are committed to ending racism, sexism, transphobia, antisemitism, and other forms of discrimination. But in practice, as intersectional leftists have argued, when you insist that class is the foundational and most important form of oppression, you inevitably end up tossing people who experience other forms of oppression under the bus.

ded family and family friends started to see how active I was becoming. At every family gathering, the aunts and grandmas would gather around me and comment on “how much weight I lost” and “how thin and pretty I am.” I reveled in these assumed compliments, but only momentarily because each time they would be cut short by my mother walking up behind:

I don’t mean that we should try to convince more people to adopt our ways — even though philosophically, I fully support and agree with vegetarianism. I’m all for having a conversation about compassion for living beings, care for the environment, and the many other philosophical issues that go hand-in-hand with meat-eating.

I bring this issue up not to sound defeatist, and certainly not to criticize those who choose not to eat meat. I bring it up as an example of how sometimes even the most well-intentioned philosophies and ideals don’t always line up with reality.

And yet, there’s a vital piece of these conversations that’s been missing: the reality of being a vegetarian. And the truth is that, for many of us, it’s not actually a sustainable lifestyle; not long-term, anyway. Most vegetarians, regardless of our convictions or reasons for quitting meat, ultimately go back to eating it.

Class-first leftists are right that in some cases, antiracism, feminism, and other liberation movements can be used to dismiss or minimize class oppression. Lean-in feminism, which encourages women executives to ask for pay raises, centers wealthy women, and often ignores or erases the exploitation of poor women (and poor people more generally). Corporate diversity initiatives can similarly paper over a company’s exploitive practices. Opponents of economic equality sometimes use accusations of racism or sexism in bad faith, just as opponents of racial liberation (like Tucker Carlson) will sometimes try to leverage the language of class oppression to stymie progress.

It’s also why class-first leftists like Angela Nagle sometimes find themselves allying with right-wing bigots like Tucker Carlson. Nagle infamously went on Carlson’s show to make the case against open borders, arguing that generous immigration policies harm American workers. Nagle sees class as the main vector of oppression, and wants to protect working class Americans first and foremost. Racism against immigrants isn’t of much concern to her; it’s not real oppression. The mantra of class-first becomes an excuse to shrug off racism and center white workers, so that Tucker Carlson becomes a more logical ally than antiracist activists.

Vegetarians and vegans are usually known for being outspoken about animal rights and the ethics of eating meat. One thing a lot of us won’t talk about is what makes us quit.

It started as an experiment, to see how many days I could go without meat. At first, it was only a day or two at a time, because the habit had been so ingrained. But a day or two quickly turned into a couple of weeks. By the time I had gone a whole month without meat, I barely missed it anymore.

When I was newer to sobriety, I might have been disappointed by this realization. These days, it doesn’t bother me at all. I’ve discovered how fulfilling a life with no alcohol can be, and I know that I’m not really missing out at all.

I was a vegetarian for three years, starting in my early twenties. Reading Michael Pollan’s The Omnivore’s Dilemma opened my eyes to the cruelties of animal farming and the wastefulness of industrial food production in general. Up until that time, I’d been a meat-eater for my whole life, but suddenly I couldn’t stomach the thought of doing it any longer.
