I'm white, so that privilege may blind me but I believe class warfare is the main war we are in. Rich, white, Christian, men hold power and they will share power with non-whites of any religion and sex but never with the poor. In other words, they value their love of money over their skin color, religious beliefs or sex.
Thanks for the response. Class warfare is the main war, but we can't deny the cultural and racial aspects of the class war. To do so would be class reductionism. The class struggle is always primary, but there are many aspects to it. I've been reading a book about the Combahee River Collective Statement (https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/1108-how-we-get-free) and they do a good job of combining class, sex, and race. There are reasons why economic oppression impacts people of color and women and LGBTQ+ people more than CIS white men.
