Not everything is defined by race.
it certainly defines more of someone's identity than some ephemeral economic position.

correct me if i'm wrong, but we're talking about the person's direct "superior" here, not about, say, a janitor vs a multinational ceo.

Historical experience shows us that workers of different racial and ethnic backgrounds can come together and do come together precisely because of their shared experience as workers.

historical experience also shows us that whites and men of all economic strata can come together, and do come together literally all the time, to trample on minorities and women. Roll Eyes

Class differences are the only things separating people.

That is absurd. Gender, culture and religion can be just as influential and personality is a factor as well.

i think he's doing an april fool's day joke Tongue

Well, it is hard to remember all the new posters, but on second thought I recall he is a right winger.

fair enough. i could definitely see one of our marxist-meninists saying something like this.

0. it's always funny to see the "i don't care if you're offended" brigade get super cheesed off if someone makes fun of them

Sure, if you've ignored everything I've ever posted on the subject:

1. "marxist feminism" isn't feminism. the idea that gender inequalities are due purely to capitalism (its central tenet) is almost as ridiculous and insulting as the idea that they stem from biological differences.

2. you are referring to my disagreement with your support of partial-birth abortion, i.e. literally infanticide.

3. unassisted viability as determined by a professional isn't at all an arbitrary line

4. obviously i also support the full subsidization of alternatives to abortion both before and after that point
