I need help dechuddifying a family member that is upset about woke culture and diversity quotas.

I'm a soft little bean that doesn't want to be too intense and cause a fight or anything though. Yes, I know, I'm a pathetic lib. Roast me. But I grew up with a lot of family drama so I really dread going through that shit again.

What's the difference between a labor aristocrat and a worker?

[-] duderium@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Sorry for the late response. A labor aristocrat is a worker who benefits materially from white supremacy, colonialism, imperialism, and patriarchy, and therefore identifies more closely with the bourgeoisie than the global proletariat. Compare a cis white male worker with a good easy respectable well-paying job in the imperial core versus a Black trans woman worker working in a factory in a place like Ethiopia. Both are technically workers given the fact that they must sell their labor to capital in order to survive, but I think we can all guess which one is probably more open to hearing about communism.
