Talk:Class society

Hello!

It's possible to translate more information from the swedish page, however I don't know how to insert the "You can help by translating more of this article from swedish" bar on the top which I've seen on other articles. Thanks for any help. InspecdahBall (talk) 15:27, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

A lot of sources didn't follow from the translation, will have to look into that.InspecdahBall (talk) 15:47, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Trivial fact?
"But the subject is not one which one may have an opinion on; it is rather a question regarding a trivial fact."

What does this even mean? Why are there many sources following this statement? So many questions. -- Pingumeister(talk) 22:45, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

But the subject is not one which one may have an opinion on; it is rather a regarding a trivial fact. I would think it has to do with the fact that you can't argue about if something is a class society or not, either it has, at least implicitly, social classes, or it doesn't. I think the sentence is to avoid people mistakenly taking a political approach instead of a antropological or sociological. I read it as that at least, and I think it makes sense, but it should maybe be rephrased.

"But the whether or not something is a class society or not is not a matter of opinion; it is rather a question of sociological and or anthropological fact."

I'll change it to this.

 * Thanks for your thoughts. I've reworded it again to try making this clearer. I'm afraid I've also removed a couple of sources you added, as they are unnecessary (e.g. other references give definitions of class society, so a dictionary source is not required). -- Pingumeister(talk) 15:07, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
