Why is the ruling class promoting Critical Race Theory ?
Who is Alan Hassenfeld of Hasbro . We democratic socialists would quickly describe Alan Hassenfeld as a chartered member of America's ruling class. As Karl Marx said " the ruling ideas are the ideas of the ruling class ". So why is the ruling class promoting Critical Race Theory ? Do they think they can abolish racism and leave intact their precious capitalist profit system ? A system where each is the enemy of all will abolish all ugly forms of HATE ? Even the HATE generated by centuries of exploitation and oppression ? Would they have us believe that economic justice is mostly a RACIAL matter ? Working class white people have nothing to whine about ? Check out the racial composition of the homeless in the USA .
