      I'd also add, class is the only leverage all these groups share.

      Class is what unites these groups, and how can they wield power to address the unique ways in which they are oppressed.

      No one group can hope to defeat any of this by themselves. Their only chance is together, and the main way they can do that is to organize around denying their labor to capitalists on behalf of each other.

      Race is structural, not just ideological, capitalism operates differently because of race.

      Take the cheap labor provided by borders, the large surplus class created by mass criminalization, the close ties between the arms industry and prison labor.

      One doesn't scaffold the other, they grow tangled together, supported by each others weight like two roses planted too close together.
