What I am trying to get it is that oppression does not end at class. You know that I bet, but you treat them differently nonetheless. Socialism is a refined, scientific process designed to analyze and solve class-based oppression. Science relies on variables and transparent acknowledgement of the facts. Ending racial, or gendered oppression is no different, we must scientifically identify each and every dimension by which they propagate and eliminate them systematically. "Socialism and the rest will just happen" is a surprisingly anti-socialist take in its methodology.

And no I was not just referring to personal racism, but it would not have mattered if I had been. We do things to fix that too. Your average white person is probably less vitriolically racist than in the past, but the reason it changed was not because Mercury was in retrograde or something
