Nah. I mean fuck the wealthy etc. They absolutely are part of the problem. But many of them depend on migrants and immigrants. The reason Democrats and Republicans are both courting the xenophobic bigot vote. Is because they’re unfortunately one of the largest most influential groups. Blame education, talk radio, social and corporate media. They’re all at fault. But more importantly so are their product. The median xenophobic American.
As a first nations descendant, i can safely say. America has always been a bigoted racist country. We were one of the last industrialized western nations to end slavery. And 150 years on. We’re actually still debating whether that was a good thing or not. Decades of tolerating fascists and racists has seen them flourish. And we’ve seemingly learned nothing.
