Power struggle
On the surface, it was about racism, or sexism, or homophobia (or religion, or politics), and enemies of one group or another were given to the ones the group wanted to fall in line with their agenda, but when you got past all the bullshit, it was the same kind of power struggle any other power struggle had always been.

Power struggle
A few more things on a list of things people might struggle over are North/South, East/West, revenge, have/have not, meek/bold, and the list goes on to about anything you can think of. People will say/do about anything to get other people to agree/compromise with them getting what they want in the end.
Of course the person or group would say the power struggle was about equality or fairness, something that sounded more noble or righteous than it really was, since all people know that life isn't really fair for anybody. They knew that as kids, before they got good at deceiving people to make money.

Power struggle
North/south, east/west, and revenge are a few other surface matters unrelated to politics, religion, or resources that people conceal a power struggle with.
The power struggle was said to be about equality, unity, or fairness, things that would sound good, noble, and righteous, and get more people (a wider audience or network of support) to fall in line with the agenda of a group looking to gain access or control of something.

Power Struggle Theory
Power Struggle Theory is the idea that a weakling is going to be most sensitive to a power struggle. This is akin to when a small dog barks wildly. This theory describes the behavior of young women who hunt for attention and enjoy keeping men at their fingertips. The vast majority of young women on sites such as Tinder and Facebook love to be in control of interactions with men and get off on the feeling of power they hold over them. Relinquishing such power is not in the interests of such a weakling, as then men would gain the upper hand in all areas. Such women usually have multiple “safe” beta males orbiting them. The woman gets a different type of stimulation and pleasure from each of the orbiters; also known as juggle play. A confident man does not need to engage in power struggles because he feels good about himself on his own. Most attractive young women realize the gig is up once the power struggle ends. They like to extend the struggle as long as possible to maintain their power and because of their fear a man will realize she brings less character to the table than he thought.
Guy 1: Why does she reply to only 30% of my messages? I thought women loved to get attention.
Guy 2: Not necessarily. Why do you think many women interpret your interest in them as weakness?
Guy: I don’t know. They don’t like muff munchers?
Guy 2: Power Struggle Theory in practice.

Science Power Struggle
The often-hidden political and economic battle over who controls the direction, funding, and narrative of scientific research. This is the dark underbelly of pure inquiry: tenured professors blocking rival theories, corporate funders shaping study outcomes, governments weaponizing research for prestige, and publishers charging outrageous fees. It's the realization that the "marketplace of ideas" is a rigged game with gatekeepers, investors, and propaganda.
Example: "His groundbreaking paper on a cheap battery was buried because of the science power struggle. A senior reviewer with ties to a lithium-ion company sat on it for a year, then recommended rejection based on a minor methodology quibble. Truth doesn't win; it needs a lobbyist."

Science Power Struggle
The hidden political and economic battle that determines which science gets done, by whom, and for what purpose. This is the dark underbelly of the paradigm struggle: the fight over grants, tenured positions, journal editorships, and prestige. It's where corporate funding shapes research agendas to favor profitable outcomes, where senior scientists block rivals' work, and where governments weaponize research for geopolitical advantage. Truth may win in the long run, but in the short term, power decides which truths get the microphone and the money.
Example: "His groundbreaking paper on a cheap renewable energy storage method was buried for a decade due to a Science Power Struggle. A powerful reviewer with ties to the fossil fuel industry sat on it, called it 'not sufficiently rigorous,' and fast-tracked his own graduate student's competing, weaker paper. The better science lost because it threatened the wrong people's kingdoms."
