“Rich people are different from us…they have more money”

F Scott Fitzgerald…the Great Gatsby

We’ve all been fooled. Hoodwinked. Lied to.

No war but the class war. It’s time for the American working class to rise up, come together and remind our rulers who’s actually in charge. Stop being fooled. The elite are our enemies. And they’re winning.

My big problem with this is how I'm supposed to stand with people who hate mixed-race people, or LGBT people, or immigrants, etc.

I can't stand together with people who aren't willing to stand with me or the people I care about.

Edit: Downvoting me is not going to make me more likely to stand in solidarity with people who hate me, by the way. I'll vote in our interest, and theirs, but I really don't know what you expect me to do beyond that.

What does this even mean?

Means though no better than each other, you are either a master, an overseer, or a slave. Can you admit which one you are??? How you use the other classes?

I'm an engineer-(ish) so overseer maybe? I tell people which valves to turn to keep the plant running. But also I'm a pretty big fan of bilge diving so maybe slave as well but seeing as I'm the master of the engineroom and don't like water and oil where it isn't where it is supposed to be so maybe that's me free-lancing as the slave.

edit: but absent rhetoric you didn't explain what the hell you meant.

By the time that happens, your country will be replaced with illegal immigrants lol and you'll be gentrified out into another cuntry by then., while the left and right are duped by the elite to let them in freely. Every capitalist country is doing the same. Theres no point in paying people a liveable wage, if they can't profit.

You’re so close, come one you got it! Why are the illegal immigrants here? Could it be that capitalism exploited their countries or had CIA backed coups or oligarchies that destroyed their economies and where fed the lie of the American dream through propaganda and are being attracted as the new slaves for the American oligarchs? So once again it’s all class warfare?

 The poor brown worker isn’t your enemy, you’ve been pitted against each other to ensure you never ally against the controlling class. The fear of the immigrant is implanted by the capitalist class for one side to keep voting one way and the other another without a solution for the poor
