Real easy to dismiss "culture war" issues when you're not on the receiving end of them. Race, gender, religious prejudices predate capitalism and will likely be with us long after it's gone.

Race, gender, religious prejudices

All secondary contradictions as consequences of class society, which is currently capitalism; it being feudalism in most of the world before that instead of capitalism doesn't change that it was, and still is, class society. Tackling the symptoms alone won't solve the core issue.

Racial, gender, queer emancipation are all part of proletariat emancipation. It's not an either/or.
