  • The rich already have the class war. They just want to make sure we don’t find out they’re the ones attacking. I remember some rich lady journalist put out some opinion piece warning the working class against seeking a class war, and to just keep fighting the culture wars.

    Ah, here it is!

    Yeah, Alice Thomson wrote this for The Times back in July of last year, bitching about how the candidates in the UK Parliament elections were touting their working class roots.



  • Problem with a lot of those companies is how long they can remain privately funded and stay in business. The modern capitalistic markets inherently select for short term thinking. Think about this. Does it make any sense to destroy 90% of your profitability in 5 years to get a 20% boost in profits next quarter? In modern capitalistic markets it does, because that’s 20% more profit with which to capture more market share. That’s where the competition is.


  • Exactly. First they go after the groups nobody cares about or wants to be associated with by presenting a false choice. Speak out against the “deportations” as an elected Democrat, they’ll go

    “Oh, so you support letting criminal gang members run rampant in our communities?”

    Speak out against the anti-trans actions and they’ll say,

    “Oh, so you think it should be okay for pedophiles and sexual predators to sneak into women’s locker rooms and restrooms?”

    And they’ll do it loudly in front of their media cameras and you have the false choice of either tanking your approval rating, or letting the fascism continue.
