I feel like this is the confluence of forces from left right and center. Left: Material, not cultural! This feelings shit is bourgeois.
Center: Fair is fair, right is right, we can't have one set of rules for so-called oppressed people and another set of rules for so-called privileged people. Treat people as individuals, not as social groups!
Right: *out loud* Yeah that centrist is right! This is unfair! This is anti-white discrimination! *on Respectable Internet* How come I can't say the n word?! *in Breitbart comments* Fuck you we're the real Americans we're the center of the culture and we ain't changing!
And like, of all the critiques, the leftist critique (as usual) is the closest to true. But you can't disentangle material and cultural (or you can, but it involves guns and I don't fw guns, lol.) You gotta work on both fronts, within leftist orgs and in the broader culture.
(And to be fair, in my limited experience the DSA has not retreated from this position. They don't execute it perfectly but no one does.)
Anyway, it is a GOOD critique to recognize that middle class people are especially concerned with cultural problems because we are generally insulated from material concerns (as distinct, again, from financial need, unpaid bills, debt, etc.)
And we need to be on the lookout for "where am I settling for cultural change and letting things stop there?" 100%
But that doesn't mean culture change is a) severable from material conditions, b) not important, or c) not a key part of actually achieving justice in the real ass world.
