    All of this is just a distraction anyway. It’s rich vs poor always has been. We have a huge group of people that should really be allies but are brainwashed against their own interests. It’s easy to say they’re on the wrong side but we should really be looking to mend the divide in ways that we can rather than further it by stating how morally superior we are.

      This rich vs. poor thing would be a hell of a lot more believable if there weren’t so many poor people who were gigantic fucking bigots.

      How do you mend a divide between people who exist and people who hate their existence?

      Agreed. It’s uncanny how no news source wants to call out the class divide and instead focuses on the partisan divide
