someone accused me of “gatekeeping” for saying that identifying as a marxist + believing in astrology are contradictory. if “gatekeeping” here means helping to maintain a coherent definition of something for the sake of political progress then...yeah...fuck it imma gatekeep

to clarify: if ur into astrology? cool, fine! but if ur into astrology + identify as a marxist, it begs the question: do u know what that word means?

i say this all as someone whose interest in astrology/marxism used to overlap. and then i was like “shit that doesn’t really make sense!”
