No war but class war?

Yes, generally it is useful to view struggles around the world as not democracy vs tyranny,
or left vs right, or women against men, or whatever artificial division line is drawn by those
who divide to conquer. We know most of it is pure propaganda and self-fulfilling prophecy
(“fake it till you make it” on grand scale, repeat the lie until people believe it, and they eventually
will believe in the most vicious lies) - there is no war, there are misinformed individuals
who participate in mass illusions. Therefore “no war but class war” is a step in positive direction,
meaningful simplification and clarification - and a sign that someone understood basic
unity of our species. Yes, hard to believe in such a dream, but why should it be harder to believe
in peace than war? Peace is good, wars are artificial, no matter if we fight with Oceania or Eurasia.

One caveat though. “Class war” can be surreptitiously ambiguous and can be used at very
effective propaganda tool by the same people who like to divide and conquer from the moment
they wake up. It all depends on how “class” is defined - after all “men”, “women”, “blacks”,
“jews” or “masons” can be used as class names, can’t they? The most famous example
is perhaps from Soviet Union, early days - it was all about class struggle, was it not?
No other war but us downtrodden workers and peasants and the oppressors. Quickly however
it mutated into a tool defining who should be killed, sent to gulags, accused of heinous
and ridiculous crimes. No war but class war - and that class war, if you want to call it that
(it was called that by everyone involved, remember) resulted in many millions of dead people,
along with their families, whole nations replaced, and many of those deaths were not just
executions - they were torturing people until they died. And not because they did anything too,
they died because Stalin said so and those who believed in class war obediently made that happened.

Therefore… beware. The human world consists not of classes, but of people. And there is no war
as such. No, really, there isn’t even a class war really - what there is is internal confusion
within the people involved. The real struggle is within. It can be, usually is, projected outside,
but imagine a battle where the soldiers stop for a moment and let critical thinking run for a moment -
“What the hell and I doing? Killing others? Getting killed myself? Is there really nothing better
to do right now?” - imagine that… and they all go home, making their generals terminally depressed.

No war but someone’s wish for you to be fighting in war that is neither a war nor it is your problem.
