The biggest political divide in America isn't "left" versus "right."
It's the American people versus the oligarchy.
It's the American people versus the oligarchy.

There are better words to describe 'these people' and their 'movement', words that most Americans understand all too well ... whether they know it or not.
Meanwhile, we were warned.... decades ago.
We were warned.

Labour on the left capital on the right it's time people are made to understand that and identify their own class so they don't act against it
Literally.
Facts vs Faith

But once the battle lines are drawn between the rich and the poor, the numbers are much more favorable. Keep pushing this battle

It’s all about whether you believe some humans are worth more at birth than others or not.
Democracy must be defended by any way possible
-Dangerous concentration of power
-Left unchecked
-Threatens our democracy
-We must not be bullied
-Protect our democracy from abuse of power
-Sounds strong language to me

Since colonial landowners first hit on the idea of making indentured servants and African slaves (who were natural allies) hate each other, that's how the game has been played.
Slaves vs. Patricians (ancient).
Farmers vs. Dukes/Kings (medieval).
Workers vs. Production means owners (industrial)
The People vs. Techno-Feudalists (near future)
Interesting Read:
Sadly, that system has been systematically misused and diluted by men/women who are more interested in personal gain than in executing their rightful duty.
corruption with no
regard for laws or the intent of the law

a populace that follows laws or pay pay pay all while live more animal like in a the daily grind to eat and merely survive to reproduce.
VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS IN EVERY ELECTION

We all have common basic NEEDS. If we learn to keep person ideologies, belief and things that’s more suited for personal pursuits out of it.
And also conditioned to fear and hate the poor, immigrants, to punch down instead of up and that rich people are rich because they are inherently good, smart, virtuous
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.
Today, Big Tech rules the world. Transforming traditional capitalists into rent-paying vassals and ordinary citizens like you into unpaid digital serfs (by holding your attention hostage so you voluntarily give them your data to control you)
Indeed.
Spot on!
Thank you, professor!

Pull your head out, brother. We are in a civil war. It’s
Normals vs MAGAts.
The oligarchy ARE the right & the right are the MAGAts & the MAGAts is Тяцмр.
And "Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, nor hell a fury like a MAGA scorned.”
But this kind of anti-branding is why people never think anything positive about liberalism or progressivism as an ideology, identity, or movement.
You’re going to be “left” whether you like it or not. Own it. Brand it.
Thank you!
Trump will simply burn anyone and everything that gets in his way to the ground. Spectacular new levels of corruption coming.

Their worst enemy is a knowledgeable voting public.
control of information
However, the main issue here is not that the enemy are few - indeed, they are not that few - but that their unmerited and antisocial power is derived from their disproportionate wealth.
So, perhaps ‘plutocracy’ might be more apt?
Describing it as the oligarchy makes it seem a new and extraordinary thing, distracting from the real problem - capitalism is too powerful for democracy.
Biden's farewell speech, if I closed my eyes, it could have been a bit of Bernie talking about money in politics. Except that we know that Biden had a chance to do it, but still didn't have the courage to buck the establishment.
Some just don't realize they're victims yet, or are blaming the wrong people for their plight.
Doesn't change the fact that they are all victims of the same oligarchy you are.
No one bats an eye at an elite athlete. But an intellectual elite?
Apparently that’s the devil’s spawn
i think the Biggest divide 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝓇𝓎𝓌𝒽𝑒𝓇𝑒 is between good caring intelligent people🆚sociopathic predators ⅋ the morons/assholes they scam
Here in Australia, our Oligarchs Such As Murdoch, and others are working overtime to install Conservative Far Right Liberal Coal-ition Government, Led by Right Wing Opposition Leader Peter Dutton.
There are far more of us than there are of them.
If necessary We could easily terminate ALL of them before they could even begin to touch OUR numbers.
The people need to remember that they outnumber them handily so WHO has the power??
Its about volume. Numbers. there is more people than politicians.
If enough people don't like it, well I read enough history books if USA's own making that dictate how civil wars started for less.
Trumps daring one from Americans right now.
During the rise of Hitler and the NSDAP, it wasn't the German people against the Nazi demagogues, either.
Unpleasant fact: many (American or not) people admire power-hungry strongmen with charisma.

Variations on theme usually implies input and/or control by the State, regardless of 'political philosophy'.
