    stop gesturing insistently at something hidden under a tarp, and show what’s under the tarp

    What fucking "tarp" it's literally as simple as getting a coherent definition of class instead of your weird mechanistic version of it, FIX your fundamentals and everything else will follow, I guarantee it Marx will start making a lot more sense to you when you recognize the role sociology plays in class dynamics

    you are not deigning to actually explain what this is in our patented condescending fashion, and how it departs from what I am saying.

    The fact you would tolerate racism and homophobia within your hypothetical working class coalition IS YOU dismissing the social dimension of class out of hand, that shit would never fly in the real world, the minute a minority member encounters that bigotry is the moment your movement is shot, to entertain the idea that anything other than that outcome would be likely, is idealism of the highest order and all you have to offer to counter that alienation of a large segment of the working class is "get the fuck over it"

    Bruh we tried that shit during the second international it was a fuckin disaster, good luck duplicating that stellar success
