Some more “tedious whining”


I didn't catch this earlier, but it seems Kos didn’t take too kindly to Lakshmi Chaudhry’s In These Times piece on blogs in progressive politics, calling it “tedious whining about the supposed lack of diversity in the blogosphere.”

Yes, how boring we are.

Chaudhry, in The ITT List, says:

...any one trying to build or participate in a digital grassroots movement needs to prioritize including as many people as possible, especially those who are most marginalized by the existing political establishment. What’s so tedious or whiny about that?

Make sure to check out her full response. And please ladies, try not to nag the poor boys too much--they’re very sensitive.

Oh, fuck Kos. Dude's just a cog in the machine and can't recognize that his self-importance keeps people that would otherwise support his causes out. Like the Democratic party. Imagine that.

You can fuck Kos! :)

I addressed the larger issue in terms of a feminist critique of Kos's rather narrow understanding of politics.

Dude, Kos can eat it. I agree with you feministe.
