    What does that even mean? You know that war is the continuation of politics by other means, right? The class war is entirely political.

        Do you mean the “political spectrum” as in democrats and republicans? There’s a ton outside that narrow spectrum.

        Their political allegiance is capitalism. They’re all power hungry fascists, regardless of what political affiliation they claim on paper.

        And there’s your problem.

        They’ve convinced you that Democrat® and Republican® are on opposite sides of the political spectrum when they’re actually on the same side. They’re both right-wing parties. There is no left side to speak of in the US.

          That’s not true. There are very “liberal” wealthy people who are just as much a part of the problem as the “conservative” wealthy people. It’s the wealth that’s the problem. There is more than enough to go around. Wealthy people, of all sides of the spectrum, are terrible at sharing.

          If we looked at them like they were in the animal kingdom, we would think something was wrong with them.

            Yeah, because liberalism and conservatism are both right wing ideologies. The line between left and right is: who should own the means of production? Both liberals and conservatives want private ownership, while socialists want public ownership.
