Absolutely, it's not because of capitalism and class structure that people are assholes, it's just that the class structure takes those issues and bakes them into the very fabric of our society at an institutional scale.
I think they're saying that women of all classes in society experience sexism, not just poorer ones, not that patriarchy existed prior to the existence of class. They've written it in a confusing manner though
What does that have to do with what I said?

Yeah, class is the method with which patriarchy/racism is enforced under the capitalist mode of production.

Sexism is structural independent of class
Yes, but it is also enforced and exasperated by class.
