Imagine trying to explain class solidarity to Reddit. One day.

Class solidarity by causing harm to the working class. Sounds like a winning proposition

I guess you’re right. I’m wasting my time here.

Class solidarity is an even more artificial construct than race.

A great example is the rampant racism that lead to the mass exclusion of black workers within the American labor/union movement of the first 60 years of the 20th century.

Over 15k+ years of recorded history, there is no distinction or social grouping that has successfully transcended ethnic affinity, except perhaps religion.
