fun fact: !important !important is essentially !importanter, and you can go even further if you want a hell of a css hierarchy

You can also just write your class again as some sort of additional specificity like

.myclass.myclass.myclass { color:red !important !important; }

The fact that this and the prior comments work don't make like CSS more tbh

Like most things in the world of dev, there are right and wrong ways to do things. Just because you can doesn't mean you should! CSS can be quite nice when used correctly!
