    It’s always been class warfare. The rich and powerful subjugate the poor, and hold poverty over us to ensure that we do what they want, and we hate who they want us to hate.

    Us infighting doesn’t stop the ultra-wealthy from continuing to win, it enables them to. The only way to win is to band together as a people regardless of our race, status, or job, against them.

      Fully agreed. The problem is getting that to happen - particularly when they own the bulk of the media from which so many of us “commoners” get what passes for “information.” Never mind overcoming the long-ingrained tribalism keeping the infighting going so strong.
