     @Mondobizarrro @exiliaex @CupidsMolotov
     TL;DR of it is that class reductionism seeks to reduce every issue down to class, ignoring intersectionality. The irony of this approach is it entirely fails to actually do that, and just makes everything about poor normative folk vs wealthy normative folk.

     @Spyemma @exiliaex @CupidsMolotov so it ends up being about as helpful as when tankies will separate countries as oppressors vs oppressed but ignoring that there are oppressed individuals in every country along with oppressors????

     @Spyemma @exiliaex @CupidsMolotov even then i dont like separating it like "oppressors vs oppressed" cause imo theres just a lot of gray in between the black and white, and im not the most well read on stuff like this surprisingly
