            Close but not quite. Every human society has social stratification, even if it’s only things like the jocks and nerds in high school. That makes it fascistic is the belief that those strata are innate and not social constructs. That is, the poor are inferior while the rich are superior, or whites are superior while blacks are inferior.

              you’re making this up. all that is necessary is enforcement of the stratification to meet this bar.

                Okay. So how do Democrats enforce stratification in a way that is not present in every other governmental system?

                    There will still be social stratification. Some people will be admired because of their deeds and others reviled because of their crimes. That’s still stratification
