    I agree, but in practice many leftists never come back to gender and racial discrimination when talking about any of this - it’s always class solidarity over all else. That argument is here in this very thread - that women and POC are inherently being protected and fought for within the class war and that’s not quite right. Oftentimes racial and sexual discrimination are a mere afterthought, but we cannot abandon or ignore our sisters and brothers lest we lose them in this fight. Rockslayer is better at expressing this than I am admittedly.

    That’s how we end up allowing our leaders in this fight to subjugate and rape women and little girls while holding him up as a shining example of working class rights.
