The sooner we realize the "left vs right" battle is a facade put up to distract and divide us, the sooner we realize what terrifies the upper class: we're much stronger together.
Unless you're a Nazi, then you can get fucked.
Bernie said it in 2000. The right uses single issue tactics to divide us. The real war is against the rich and poor.
Bernie has been speaking truth to power on this longer than I've been alive, which is why the ruling class killed both his presidential campaigns.
Now, we're seeing the logical conclusion that plays out when people feel like there's no way to win this fight at the polls.
Amusingly, this kind of thing makes me think about gun laws.
Everyone believes it's impossible for gun control, but I would bet my life that if the rich got too unsettled we would see some swift and heavy restrictions set up.
It's all class warfare. Always has been.
This is part of why I'm a pro gun leftist.
No, police arrest and kill rich black people in the US too.
