Make of this what you will.

It's amazing how even the most Moderate Centrist hints of raising taxes brings out the calls of CLASS WARFARE!!!!

Seriously, if Elizabeth Warren is a Wacky Leftist Class Warrior for trying to raise a 2% Wealth Tax off the rich while also cleaning up the blatant toxic Corruption in our Bourgeois Republic, than I guess George HW Bush must have been a Liberal. And I guess that would make Nixon a Communist for using Price Controls during the period of Stagflation. Or Eisenhower a Socialist for not trying to dismantle the New Deal and raising the top Marginal Tax Rate to 96%. Those guys were total Class Warriors!

Seriously, Jane Lynch scolding Elizabeth Warren for her "Ugly" Class Warfare is about the most tone deaf, Bourgeois thing I can imagine.

It's people like this that are sickening worthless garbage. Worse, they're the scumbags that allow Fascism to creep its way into mainstream politics.

When the so-called "Moderate Liberals" run to the Elite Mainstream Newspapers and Cable Channels to scold other Democrats about "Class Warfare" opens the door to Fascists, Nationalists and other White Supremacists to claim the mantle of Populism.

The Bourgeoisie and their Petit-Bourgeois Power Brokers in Washington and the New York City Media Empires just cannot grasp just how untenable and deeply unpopular Neoliberalism is for the rest of the Country.

These people living in their Upper Middle Class McMansions in cookie-cutter neighborhoods with gated entrances cannot come to terms with the fact that their accumulation of wealth and power hasn't been a mark of their own hard work, or that it's come at the expense of Workers everywhere.

Today's Petit-Bourgeoisie were yesterday's Aristocratic Class of the late 19th Century. Except unlike the 19th, no organized large scale Labor Movement or Socialist Movement is there to catch disaffected Workers.

Instead today's White Working Class is being brainwashed with complete success in blaming Black and Brown people and immigrants for their own misfortunes. A strategy by the Imperialist Bourgeoisie that's been steadily dividing the Working Class in America and turning us against one another to prevent any challenge to Capital Accumulation by Workers.

So where else would these propagandized, racist, sexist and angry White Workers turn than to Far-Right Movements including Fascist Organizations, White Nationalist Groups and, of course, the Trump Campaign.

The steady erosion of Worker Rights, Working Class Wealth, Voting Rights, Labor Unions, or a Political Party they trust to take their grievances to has meant an ever Rightwardly drifting and Corrupt Republican Party turning to more and more blatant calls of Violence and White Grievance to draw in this mass of Party-less Voters into their camp; eventually leading to the election of Donald J Trump and increasing racial violence, Religious Violence, lone Wolf shooters and other expressions of the embrace of Fascism by White Workers.

Neoliberalism and Free Market Capitalist Fundamentalism was always going to be untenable. The question was how long it would take to fall apart, and who would be there to offer Workers something completely different.

Of course Fascism isn't really anything different at all, but it's very good at disguising it's true purpose (the violent expression of the Ruling Class as they lose their grip on power and attempt to re-establish Economic Control), and it's very good at always presenting a target to blame for Worker's discontent. But despite all the dressed up modern language and use of technology, the Narratives never seem to change. It's all the White Workers, the deserving TRUE Patriots and hard working decent folks being lied to and taken advantage of by shady colored people, immigrants, Religious Minorities, the Poor, and Leftists, in particular creeping Socialism and Communists! Who always want to destroy the Homeland for some poorly explained, nefarious but vague reason.

But the second ingredient for a successful Fascist Movement to grow to Power always involves Moderate a Political Elite on the other side that thinks it's the voice of reason and finds the Fascists crass and distasteful but always think they have a handle on things until it's too late and all their most Powerful backers join what they see as the winning team, the Fascists. Why? Because in the end, even the most "Moderate" section of the Bourgeoisie care more about retaining their Political Power and Capital Accumulation than they do about their "Moderate Principles".

So that's the Precapice on which America stands. Not every Fascist couched as a Populist is going to be too stupid and Openly Corrupt to take advantage of the blind adoration their White Voters have for them.

The next Donald Trump could easily be someone with far more Political skill, intelligence and cunning than Trump has. Eventually the Far-Right will find the right Standard Barer who can actually build walls, defy Courts, create registries for Religious and Racial Minorities, or even begin rounding up Liberals and Leftists, Muslims and Immigrant Families who are fully here legally.

People within the Petit-Bourgeoisie, who have quite a lot to lose in the event that Fascism Succeeds in capturing State Power in America, need to start thinking real hard what world is truly more terrifying to live in, a Social Democratic or Marxist World? Or an World always teetering on the edge of disaster with Fascist Rule and lunatics running around with the Nuclear football with the US Arsernal Launch Codes?

I'm telling everyone I can to please be conscious of which side, Left or Fascist Right, is most likely to take power I the event of a failure of the Political and Economic System. And then think what the result of that happening would look like, and how it might affect your own friends and family.

I'm not expecting Liberals to suddenly proclaim themselves allies of the Far-Left or vice versa any time soon. But the time for planning for these Power Struggles is now. At this moment, it would take nothing short of a Miracle for the Left to fight for power against the Far-Right.

We would most definitely Lose

So maybe these Neoliberal Moderates, Centrists and Liberal Commentators should think real hard about what's going on outside their Aristocratic Gated Community Bubbles before they start Scolding a Center-Left Political Figure like Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders as engaging in "Ugly" Class Warfare.

One day they may wake up to a very different threat on their doorstep.

Okay there's this secret hidden left wing party lore in Irish politics in which labour begs social democrats to go into coalition/form an alliance/go to party talks with them and every time socdems outright rejects them and labour is like "😁no worries😁its fine💞love you!💞"

During the late 2000′s and the early 2010′s during the height of the new atheists on the internet one thing that was funny to me was seeing atheist anarchists argue with atheists socdems. For those of you that don’t know a lot of the atheists during the new atheist movement were socdems. They became this way partially as a response to the christian right of the bush era. Anyway, they held social democracy to such a high regard that it was the perfect form of government. That nothing could ever beat it. Then you get atheist anarchists trying to convert the socdem atheists to anarchism. The atheist anarchists would use the same arguments the new atheists used for religion but this time for government and why it shouldn’t be followed. The socdem atheists got flustered by this and at best were irritated with arguing with anarchist atheists. It was a funny sight to see.
