and that's a good way of putting it.

It's like the young activists who think that the class struggles of the 19th and 20th centuries are irrelevant today in the 21st century. My answer is that social forces are social forces and their basic natures do not change. The names of groups and organizations that represent these forces might change, production methods might change, even the nomenclature for those social forces might change, but the forces themselves always have the same basic nature.
