    You must have heard of “None of us is free, until we’re all free!” before, right?

      I’ll use the example used a lot during COVID: we’re all in the same storm, but we’re not all in the same boat.

          During COVID Some of us were “essential workers” and others got to complain about being stuck at home. But that was a minor gripe of mine. I would argue that arguing that people belonging to different strata of working class is about as useful as separating people by race. For the most part any conversation that doesn’t specify the need for the separation there is only one human race, and there is only the working class against the owning class.
