i asked this on insta (which is asking for trouble) and will ask here:

why is the oppressed/oppressor framework used so commonly these days and how is it helpful to advancing society?

under this framework, what happens when the oppressed is no longer oppressed? it must become the oppressor; there is no other option.

I think it's just the easiest/simplest way to view complex dynamics, and thus because it's the simplest, it's understandable/available to the most number of people (with the lowest required effort of thinking). It's not helpful and I don't think will really last as the predominant thinking long term (hopefully)

I'm also curious how much of it is driven by the internet and instant worldwide communication/news, and if humans are still just adjusting to our new world of the last 20-30 years.

i’m hopeful, as well, and optimistic a more growth-oriented framework will prevail.
