While moralizing class relations and the subjugation of minorities helps direct people's anger the right way, it still hides the shameful truth: rich people don't hate minorities or the working class, they just act in their own interest and have no issues with the collateral damage that inherently causes. Hatred against trans and queer people, as well as against foreigners, simply acts as a means to an end, which is dividing the working class so they can't stand up for their own interests united.

@ErikUden Ah yes, the old "why don't you vote in your own interest you unenlightened scum?"

Racism and queerphobia has a system which is based on class. Obviously the executive branch of right wing ideology, which is other working class people, becomes victim of this instrumentalization of indirectly representing the interests of the rich.There was simply no way to grass-roots convince American people to be against healthcare, public services, and the redistribution of wealth after Roosevelt's New Deal ended the great depression and sparked the greatest unions and solidarity movements on the continent and planet.The redistribution policies of Roosevelt and 90% income tax on the super wealthy were so popular, they needed to enact a term limit so he wouldn't get constantly re-elected.The only chance a party representing the interests of the rich had to convince a majority of Americans to stand against their own interests, was by dividing and conquering. The oldest trick in the book.

Fascism is the system capital chooses to ensure its proponent's power and wealth is secured forever. Any government that allows for democratic participation of any kind will inevitably have its people rise up and question why arbitrary, unelected rich men have the power they have.Fascism is capitalism in decay, the emergency route for when times get rough.

@ErikUden Sadly, many people do not discover humility until they lie in their death bed; this is a root cause of many human problems. Humility and meditative stillness avoids the faults of ego. Be like a tree.#philosophy

@ErikUden Trans people were a small enough portion of the population that it was considered safe to attack them.The range of acceptable targets is always kept fluid to maintain the flexibility necessary to *always* have a distraction handy.When they run out of convenient external "enemies", they'll turn on their own party and purge "dangerous" dissenters from within too.
