Rise of the stupid ppl. What you get for defunding education.
Left, right, left, right. Two sides of the same coin.
Victimhood is what Saul Alinsky taught. It's what Obama, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and the Democrat party have been teaching for at least 50 years. It is their preferred way to motivate minorities to vote for Dems to rescue them. It tells minorities that they don't really have a chance to make in America because of "the man." So that demotivates kids from studying and trying to make it in the traditional way. They end up HURTING minorities. Dem leaders are sick twisted people who lust for power and, for them, the ends justify the means.
The two party paradigm is a single lane to destruction.
Identity politics is a tool of the elite to divide the working class and keep us subjugated. Feminists say it's "the patriarchy", BLM says it's "white supremacy", the KKK says it's "black supremacy", Nazis say it's "the jews", men's rights activists say it's "the matriarchy", the reality is the only division of power is by class – the ruling class and everybody else. Intersectionality and political correctness have taken over what 60 years ago was true social justice. As long as they can keep people outraged, they stay in power and rake in all that money
