Warfare is dumb.
The class struggle is a perspective. It points to how blind rich people are to social issues, and how blind the poor are to economic issues. These two need the struggle, gently. Without it, there is either bloody revolution or cruel autocracy.
That's as simple as it gets. Many people get it wrong.
I assure you that poor people are not universally blind to economic issues. lol.
That's the least important part of my statement.
There is a struggle between those who have power and those who don't. This displacement creates blind spots, and also vantage points.
poor people can't afford to be blind to economic issues. Rich people have more leeway there.
