    This is the sort of term begging for a false equivalence: that a social class is as worth existing as an ethnic group. It’s fucking dumb, specially when you use a definition like this:

    classicide has been used […] to describe the unique forms of genocide which pertain to the annihilation of a class through murder or displacement and the destruction of the bourgeoisie to form an equal proletariat

    Emphasis mine. So, basically: if you want a classless society, by demoting the borghesia to proletariat, that’s literally like genocide? *rolls eyes*

    [The fun part is when you realise that the borghesia is the main responsible for the proletarisation of itself. As such it would be committing auto-classicide.]

    I should stop talking politics in this account. And in case anyone wonders why I spelled “borghesia” this way, it’s because I’m fucking tired to do it in English, I never get it right the first 2~3 times, so might as spell it as in Italian.
