Apparently pointing out that society discriminates against certain people is “stoking racial divides”. Or pointing out that society is biased in favor of others is “creating an aggrieved class”. The thing is, the divide has always been there. Pretty sure slavery, Jim Crow, redlining, gerrymandering, etc… created that racial divide. Pretty sure institutional and societal sexism, homophobia, and various other biases that have been left unchecked created that aggrieved class. People who point that out and try to organize around fixing those biases aren’t making victims. The victims were already there. They are trying to empower those people and change society so it victimizes people less. Also, during all this organization, class consciousness is clearly pushed and communicated. To say there are no class issues in the west cause everyone is rich, apparently, is absurd. The reason people don’t talk about class is because everything in western society works to make people ignorant of class issues. |
