Class reductionism is a reactionary and deeply flawed analysis. The abolition of the class system alone will not bring with it the abolition of all other injustices if if no attention is given to those.
This sort of post really brings out all the concavebrained centrists and red-brown alliance types who somehow think leftists and fascists aren’t axiomatically opposed to each other, as well as the whining brocialists who are happy to oppose the hierarchies that oppress them but will throw a shitfit if anybody points out any societal problems to which they could still be contributing.
Class reductionism is when people act as though literally all of society’s problems could be boiled down to the class structure under capitalism. The class structure/class system is the relationship between the owning class (called capitalists) and the working class they exploit.
“Reactionary,” put very simply, is a word that describes beliefs or actions that react to efforts to improve society in an oppositional way.
“Concavebrained” is an adjective describing someone whose brain has a dented shape to it. It means stupid.
People or groups being axiomatically opposed means that they operate under values systems and thus motivations so different from each other that they cannot work towards common goals.
“Brocialist” is a colloquial term that describes a leftist who dismisses the struggles against certain social injustices, especially those of feminists. A brocialist is basically the sort of person you’d expect to engage in class reductionism.
Hierarchies are systems that place different amounts of value on different elements. In the context of a social structures, this means treating some people as more valuable than others.
Culture war manufactured, class war real.
