There’d probably just be a fucked up way to monteize something men overlooked. Gender doesn’t mean shit, class does

So you think misogyny, homophobia, racism, transphobia, colorism, speciesism, ableism, etc are all unimportant and class war is the only battle that matters?

Class is the root cause of all the other issues but that doesn't mean they don't matter.

Once capitalism is defeated, there will be no class structure or hierarchy, we'll all be equals.

Explain how we will continue to be subjugated without capitalism? There won't be any reason to accept subjugation if there's no capitalist system to force it on us.

It doesn't matter if they're racist if they have no power under the social system to use that racism to do harm.

Acquiring power isn't a hard thing to do... especially when there isn't a police force to keep the 'state of things,' in order.

So what is your idea of utopia then? Sounds like you're some kind of police and state lover.

Not just a primmie but one that admits to wanting to kill me. Marvelous.
