Talk:Class conflict

message: Here's the current version of a prominent sentence in the lead, after my recent addition of "real or imagined": 
The social-class conflict can be direct, as in a dispute between labour and management such as an employer's industrial lockout of their employees in effort to weaken the bargaining power of the corresponding trade union; or indirect such as a workers' slowdown of production in protest of real or imagined unfair labor practices like low wages and poor workplace conditions.
Here's the sentence as transcribed for my own notes. I find these bloated sentences worthless for a quick review, so I explode them out into note format. 
The social-class conflict can be:
* in direct dispute
** as between labour and management 
** such as an employer's industrial lockout of their employees 
*** in effort to  of the corresponding trade union
* in indirect dispute
** such as a workers' slowdown of production
** in protest of  unfair labor practices like:
*** low wages
*** poor workplace conditions
Over and over again, here on Wikipedia, when I explode a sentence such as this one, I notice things that were previously not so easily perceived. 
Weaken the bargaining power is not correct, except in a counterfactual fantasy world where lockouts were illegal under law (where "bargaining power" would be evaluated without consideration of this countermove on the other side). 
But actually, lockouts are legal, and this defines the bargaining power situation from the get go. 
Far more correct would be the phrase "test the collective resolve of the corresponding trade union". 
It would be nice to fix that, but even better, this lead could use fewer of these dense, fanfold sentences to begin with. 
The previous paragraph is also at present a fanfold sentence of the same type. 
The forms of class conflict include:
* direct violence such as:
** wars for resources and cheap labor
** assassinations or revolution
* indirect violence such as:
** deaths from poverty and starvation
** illness and unsafe working conditions
* economic coercion such as:
** threat of unemployment
** withdrawal of investment capital
** ideologically, by way of political literature
Readers do not carefully read this kind of blather packed together in a single sentence unit, which is why I consistently find problems when I explode these sentences into my own notes. 
In this instance, is the 'ideological' line item meant to be a subset of economic coercion, and if not (which seems likely), why has it failed to use parallel structure to at least throw the floundering reader a buoyant bone? 
* ideological coercion, by way of political literature
For myself, these listicle jam jars read mainly as a form of annoyance porn, as opposed to establishing a proper encyclopedic frame. — MaxEnt 17:22, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
