1/ Class has nothing to do with caste, it has no organic and traditional basis, but is instead an artificial social grouping, determined by extrinsic factors which are almost always of a materialistic nature. Class almost always arises on an individualistic basis, in the sense
2/ that it is the “place” that brings together all those who, through their enterprise, have climbed to the same social position, in complete independence of what they by nature truly are. These artificial groupings then tend to crystallize, thereby generating the tensions known
3/ to all. In fact, the disintegration characteristic of this type of “civilization” accomplishes the degradation of the “arts” to mere “work,” the transformation of the of the old artificer or artisan into the proletarianized “worker,” whose activity is reduced to being only
4/ a means of earning money, & who is only capable of thinking of “salaries” & “working hours.” Little by little, artificial needs, ambitions, & resentments are aroused in him, since in the end the “upper classes” no longer display any quality that might justify their superiority
5/ & their possession of a larger quantity of material goods. Thus, class struggle is one of the ultimate consequences of a society that has been denatured, & considers this denaturing, the neglect of one’s own nature & of tradition, to be a triumph & a form of progress. #Evola
