I fight for the Caldari denied the right to make his place in null sec by the inclosurist alliances of today.
Then stop attacking Caldari corporations attempting to defend the useful development of Black Rise for the purposes of a multitude of corporations and head into Pure Blind, Cloud Ring, Tribute, Vale of the Silent, or Geminate. You are preventing Caldari corporations from even maintaining high security space operations.

I fight for the grovelling poor Gallente on Caldari Prime as they cower under the street corner militias rubberized heel.
Stop calling it Caldari Prime if you don't think a Caldari dirt-side government should control the planet. Those militias are largely made up of what you would have been calling grovelling poor Caldari 3 months ago by the way. They are no longer grovelling.

You... fight for the state. Oppression, social ghettoism, xenophobia, oppression by the moneyed few.
Oppression, you have this twice so I am not sure what the first one means unless it is also a reference to the second instance. I will address the second instance. The corporations seem to many on the outside to be by their very nature oppressive; this is however wrong. Some corporations have had poor leaders who before being placed in executive positions had not lead much of anything. Their appointments were political, Heth has changed this to some degree and the collapsing economy have shown the failure of the corrupt and oppressive CEOs. Your attacks against State organizations only makes worse an already bad situation and fuels the State's need for strong security over liberties.
You also need to realize that unlike in Gallente culture, the individual Caldari is not all important. His family, his clan, his corporation comes before self. This is not about laboring to make a small group of executives richer (one of Tibus Heth's points), it is about ensuring the whole is successful and continues to survive. So what you may see as oppression is the freewill choice of the members of the culture to put something before self. Tibus Heth states he is working for the Caldari people and largely with their approval. It is those moneyed few and the capsuleers who have the most to lose with Heth in power and the average worker the most to gain. (sarcasm) But we know better, we know what is best for those living and working on the planets, moons, stations, and starships. (end sarcasm)
The Gallente & Minmatar can prove to be just as xenophobic, as demonstrated by many of them here on IGS. Am I xenophobic, a bit; but in truth I look for those with ability and drive to better the corporation I run, hopefully in the process improving the whole corporation's circumstances. Most people are xenophobic, stereotyping individuals based on their place of origin and if they don't like that place of origin they tend to not like those people in general.
My xenophobia is based on a fear that a foreign government will involve itself in the affairs of mine and other Caldari corporations. It appears that such a fear is well founded.
The last term, "social ghettoism", I will have to ask you to define as my Galnet reference material produces a definition that I don't believe you meant.
As to the success of SF, congratulations on hindering the development of what could become the begins of a return to the Caldari corporate ideal.
