I did see that post but I was mostly responding to you.
There's a particular category of "leftist" who, to put it gently, have a
greatly simplified view of the world in which "the only war is class war."
I wanted to explain how the viewpoint of "the only war is the class war" is
more developed, rather than simplified. I wanted to express that it takes
nuance to understand that all oppression is connected and is derived from the
same source - the corruption of power.
They regard social issues such as anti-racism, feminism, queer liberation as
distractions from the "true" cause of bringing about a new economic system -
unimportant at best, active interference invented by the ruling class at worst.
It's not true that those who believe in the class war disregard these things.
That's just not right to me.
Basically, they're narrow-minded bigots.
I was included in your first statement and I'm not a bigot so I wanted to stand
up for myself.

never trust your heroes
for they will always let you down. A hero is just a person, after all, and if
you treat them as an ideal then they will disappoint you.
give tasks to people, not ideals.
