Yeah the big slave owners had exemptions because the Confederacy was terrified of a slave uprising in the midst of a war and needed armed white men on the plantations to keep them in line.

Oor Coohoolie.
It's an insidious technique, insisting that "it doesn't define them" or similarly removing from discourse the important point that structural and institutional systems actually can and will remove everything from you. Don't worry about your agency being taken away by a ruthless economic system, as long as you assert yourself within the confines given to you and form a proper consumer based identity you'll be fine.

The hyper-focus on Agency to gloss over gross oppression and exploitation pisses me off. It's aimed directly at some of the most oppressed communities and seems like a pretty blatant propaganda to convince them that political organizing in their interest isn't actually that important. Like, actually you can gain self worth by realizing you're consenting to your oppression!

I guess the hopepunk stuff Vox published isn't much different and is more widespread, but already liberal people obsessing over Harry Potter seems like a sort of organic development. I'd rather have people cosplaying Dumblerdore's Army than doing another Rally to Restore Sanity at least.

Over the past decade or so, the working definition of “Hotep” has morphed into an all-encompassing term describing a person who’s either a clueless parody of Afrocentricity—think “Preach” from Don’t Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood—or someone who’s loudly, conspicuously and obnoxiously pro-black but anti-progress.
