I figured that was most of this forum. Even the people who are clearly minority comrades say this to me basically " all forms of oppression must be fought back against, now, but class is the primary mode of oppression"

    Honestly, I believe that core vs. periphery has been the principle contradiction (globally, in particular times/places other contradictions and be primary) for over a century; and while this is class, it's not a narrow orthodox understanding of class. But basically it's all connected, all systems of oppression are implicated in capitalism. And overthrowing the capitalist-imperialist world-system and constructing socialism is the only way out.

    Like obviously radlibs are wrong, but the "class reductionists" are also wrong in that they don't recognize that class plays out differently in different situations (patsoc types being a perfect example of this).
