There is a war between the rich and poor
A war between the man and the woman
There is a war between the ones who say there is a war
And the ones who say that there isn't
Why don't you come on back to the war, that's right, get in it
Why don't you come on back to the war, it's just beginning
One of Karl Marx’s most famous statements is that “All history is the history of class struggles”. The exploitation of the poor by the rich should be read as a war. 
 Feminists ( such as bell hooks ) would later say we should also take into consideration the exploitation of women by men – perhaps that should also be read as a war. 
 After paralleling these images of conflict among social groups, the author goes meta and states that the ideological controversies –  theories about whether these (and other) relationships should or shouldn’t be described as wars – can also be interpreted as a war.
