Weird, isn't it, like there's some vast wellspring of support a political party could have tapped into by doing literally fucking anything but defending the status quo.

It's almost like the uniting factor of the people is class. I feel like there was a historical figure once, who was assassinated for trying to pivot from race to class because the government saw the danger of a united population.

Every other cause is a distraction from that one.

Wait, who are you referring to?

I assumed they were talking about MLK.

So now the government had him killed...?

Did you skip education?

Yes. Is it surprising to you that the US government would be involved in the assassination of a Civil Rights and socialist leader or have ties to white supremacy?

If so, I can recommend quite a lot of further reading about... Most of US history.

Government would never kill anyone mate!

Are you a brain dead conspiracy theorist?
