    This whole idea of class struggle being the only struggle is so oversimplified it’s kinda silly.

    There’s nothing wrong with a simplified model if it gets you the results you’re looking for. And for the vast majority of the working class thinking in simplistic terms such as capitalist vs. worker would improve their lives tremendously.

    The more complex models might be useful for explaining how things change and evolve. But mainly complexity is introduced by capitalists (or capitalist simps) to sow discord among workers and keep us from organizing effectively.

      Why are all the marxists coming out of the wood work? Y’all can’t run a society for shit. Why are you still here and existing?

      China was one of your experiments that went wrong. Go and build a working model for a socialist or communist society and I might listen. Until then you have nothing to add. Anarchists had better luck than you guys and you killed them for it.

        I mean, call me whatever you want. It’s irrelevant. Do you need my vote or not? If you don’t then ignore me. If you do then pay attention.

          Which country do you live in? I live in the UK so unless you are here it’s mostly irrelevant what you vote for.

                  You’re the one who asked if I needed your vote lmao. I don’t. You’re just annoyed you don’t have any leverage over me.
