20. Great. Listen up Dem candidates. Class and culture warfare exploited by
Repubs is how they divide and conquer 'We the People.' Howard Dean was right about reaching out to folks with Confederate flags on their pick-up trucks.

The lie that there is a Free Market and Equal Opportunity and Justice for All is used to villify the have-nots.

The Master Race mentality that believes "you have what you have because of your virtue or lack of it" is a decidedly Republican/Capitalist/Fundamentalist attitude that money uses to keep the poor at each other's throats with racism and moral crusades against 'slackers, foreigners, perverts and Federalists.'

Excellent detailed explainer of these dynamics here.
