Now to bury the Latham obsession with class warfare

Peter Hartcher writes, in Now to bury the Latham obsession with class warfare, that:

Kim Beazley has set out three new approaches in Labor's strategy. All three seek to move Labor from the cutting edge of Latham Labor and into the safe centre of Australian politics.

First, he has taken the ideology out of the contest for national government. Like John Howard, he stresses the egalitarian nature of the Australian spirit and disavowed any hint of class warfare, stepping away from some of the divisiveness of Mark Latham's Labor.

Class warfare is a fact of life under Capitalism. The rich are still oppressing the poor. What Peter Hartcher is saying that the poor should give up fighting back and let the rich win.

Peter Hartcher may have taken his thirty pieces of silver and is urging us 'dead-enders' to submit to the inevitability of imperial control but I have not nor have billions of others. We are all fighting back in our own way at present. One day we may join together in larger and larger numbers to really start class warfare on our terms not the ruling class's terms.
