“Deny it as may the cunning capitalists who are clear-sighted enough to perceive it, or ignore it as may the torpid workers who are too blind and unthinking to see it, the struggle in which we are engaged today is a class struggle, and as the toiling millions come to see and understand it and rally to the political standard of their class, they will drive all capitalist parties of whatever name into the same party, and the class struggle will then be so clearly revealed that the hosts of labor will find their true place in the conflict and strike the united and decisive blow that will destroy slavery and achieve their full and final emancipation.”
“Ignorance alone stands in the way of socialist success. The capitalist parties understand this and use their resources to prevent the workers from seeing the light.
Intellectual darkness is essential to industrial slavery.”
Eugene Debbs

I suppose you think the Capitalists just wanted to give the American worker, Social Security or Medicare because they loved the workers? The working class struggled for these benefits. They struggled against Capitalist forces; to fight against employers making workers work in dangerous factories, as they lost hands and limbs without OSHA Regulations. Or child labor laws, 40 hour work weeks, another hard fought battle.
The working class fought for it. It was in their interest to fight for it and they achieved it.
But I suspect your just spouting off as though you really cared except to ridicule?

What term has been used to describe persons not knowing the particular term to describe the relationships of groups. ie. Royalty vs. peasantry; or master class vs. servant class.
You mock the term as old fashioned; do you have a better term that clearly defines the separation? Ignorant is an old word too but in most cases, it still applies. What or whose interest do you serve?
Stupid comes to mind. Or how about apathetic jerks? To describe those who don't realize the Caste system in America.
