If the culture war is the class war then the class war is the culture war. Dealing with the culture war is often many many times more actionable. We can and should deal with both.
Culture War is used by the Ruling class to distract from the Class war, the only way to win the Culture War is to win the Class War.
Ok but I don't have to not defend trans people to be anticapitalist. It isn't a "distraction" it is a front, to extend the war analogy.
The attitude arguing the culture war doesn't exist doesn't mean you are above it, it just mean you are abandoning your comrades who are under attack.
