Agreed.

I’m all for emphasising class war.

But this “culture war” also includes the human rights of trans people, disabled people, migrants, marginalised folk in general.

I think it’s dangerous to say it’s unimportant. Yes the purpose might be to distract us, but if we let the right win, we are letting them literally commit social murder against groups of people. This isn’t about whether a gay flag is allowed to go on the street. It’s about if a disabled person is allowed to request accommodations and therefore have a job instead of starving to death. It’s about if a trans person has the right to exist openly without being locked into and abused in a psych ward.
