    Should be “fuck the 99%”.

    The “middle class” doesn’t think they are poor so this message will fall flat on them. In fact they might support it, because then they get to kick down on someone.

      Even the working-poor conservatives who have to put in 60+ hours a week for minimum wage just to pay for their shitty single-wide have been brainwashed to believe that they’re “prosperous” simply for being white americans, and that being one medical bill away from literal homelessness is actually “patriotism.”

      So yeah, the only way we break this infernal spell cast by ancient liches and necromancers is to point at the liches and necromancers hiding behind the curtain. This is populism, this is class consciousness and this is unifying against the actual enemies of our country.
