    Class struggle is a fascinating way of analysing history, and can be a really powerful analytic framework.

    But obviously not everything is class, hence, ✨intersectionality✨

      Yeah, but if you want to make a generalization, it’s likely the most appropriate one.

        Yep, just really important to stress it’s a massive oversimplification — but that oversimplification is suprisingly accurate. Maybe like how newtonian mechanics is a massive oversimplification of how the world works but is suprisingly good at predicting things.
