Is Planned Parenthood still the "Establishment"?

It seems that anyone who doesn't kiss Bernie's ass is "The Establishment".

I can't believe that Hillary supporters would actually argue that she doesn't represent the establishment. She is the candidate of the establishment. She is funding her campaign with establishment money and she has the majority of the political establishment endorsing her candidacy. It's laughable to try to pretend what is obvious to anyone with eyes.

so they can serve their actual masters with minimal resistance and friction.

The tactic it's self is an automatic tell because even if honestly well intentioned it because it is a self nullifying strategy. It can't operate in a two party system where the other party is all but completely a bunch of radical regressives not only fully sold out but too stupid to and cruel spirited to maintain a civilization capable of giving loot full value.

Who really wins when you create a dystopia? Seems like there are plenty of destinies that beat rich in one for actually enjoying life and the bounty one has been blessed with, you can't really provide enough opposing gravity to avoid ceding most of your own arguments from jump.

The Turd Way is purely negotiating the terms of ideological surrender to greed, malice, oppression, and cruelty.
