Exactly. If you admit it I’m fine with you and I’ll even respect you, because admitting you’re wrong takes guts. But atp if you don’t admit it and you are suffering, I don’t want to hear it

I almost agree. I think it comes down to Dems believing that economic issues are not social justice issues, when in fact economic issues are the most important justice issues. By giving to the economically needy, by default you give disproportionately to the disabled, marginalized, and minority groups, because they are more likely to be poorer. And for the most part, in most causes, the real power in privilege and marginalization dynamics are mostly economic.

Why do they have to mutually exclusive is my thing? It’s not that Dems prioritized social issues over economics it’s that they all but abandoned the working class

My take is “why do they have to be 2 separate concepts at all?”

I don’t think they’re actually mutually exclusive. As Justinian said, they kind of go hand in hand. Race and other factors around social justice can be correlated with class. The problem is the average person doesn’t seem to understand this (or understand intersectionality at all). Social justice doesn’t have to take a back seat at all but it shouldn’t be the forefront of the rhetoric. The rhetoric should be about everyone in the working class
