Edit for those curious why I shared this: Today [email protected] was popping off with a lot of "No war but class war" memes and they were getting a lot of support from the people over there.
I tried to share this there as well only to find out that apparently I was banned over there last week and I still have a week left in my ban. (Never knew I was due to never being told I was banned?)
Only reason I even found out I was banned over there was due to checking the modlogs for lemmy.ml after I noticed my post was gaining no ground.
Class is where the power against this is exerted from, not the capitalist system adopting notions of it that don't threaten the economic arrangement, which is generally the ground the "culture war" fights on right now because there is no political power from the left in the US. The capitalist system adopting DEI for instance, like okay we can all be exploited equally, it's easy to see the fairness in that and support the idea one group shouldn't be favored above another. However the idea that the best people from each identity group get to have the best stuff isn't doing anything in relation to income inequality, it's a very reactionary notion of these ideas which in practice perpetuates the system that itself produces the disparities. Seeing this as a class issue and brining class to the table, without any way to exert political power in the US, is right now the job of the individual leftists.
