“Class analysis is unsettling to many Americans because if it is true, then the wealth and political power of elites comes into question; we begin to see the means of extraction, and these means don’t look like the concepts in political and moral philosophy. It is almost like the philosophers were looking for after-the-fact ways to paper over what ruling classes had in fact done. This is why we must insist that the observable facts are more important than philosophical abstractions.” (11/07/25)
