I do and I donât agree. I think gender and race issues are often weaponized to distract from the overall class struggle, as a âdivide and conquerâ strategy. But I also think sexism and racism have been so thoroughly encoded into our legal and societal structures that simply having more money wonât completely fix the problems. Would it be a good start? Absolutely, yes, and itâs a goal worth working towards. But weâre fighting a war on many fronts, so I see things from a more intersectional perspective. Which is NOT me saying youâre wrong⌠I just think we see it in slightly different ways.
(Of course, that may also be because Iâm still learning about the class struggle and donât have a comprehensive understanding of certain sociopolitical theories yet. Iâm a work in progress. )
Oh no, it wouldnât solve everythingâŚbut it would ease things up on a lot of folks so they could better address R&G (addendum: and other issues of importance)
(note: i musta been thinking about music when I typed âR&Bâ originally, lol)
So many things would be easier to accomplish if people didnât have to worry about having enough money to survive.

IMHO, Biden doesnât get to claim jack shit until he actually gets something done. And considering how little effort heâs putting into making this bill pass (or any of the other myriad promises heâs made only to subsequently abandon once he took office), if this âNew Dealâ bill does pass, he shouldnât get any credit for it.
Biden is busy doing what every Democratic President does: normalising and institutionalising the crimes of his GOP predecessor.
Why Reagan though? He was just a charismatic Eisenhower. And all the Dems are JFK wanna-bes.
