    The #1 issue for all of us is Us versus Them. That’s it. There’s 1000 of them and 350 million of us.

      It is, but the narrative they want it “us vs immigrants”. Think of how long they’ve been rage baiting people with this, it’s nuts.

      Keep focus, it’s the 1%.

      But what will you do when the rest of the world’s working poor turns around and suddenly you’re “them”

        Right, we need to be careful about defining class struggle globally when we’re in the 99% locally but most of us may be in the 1% globally

        This is one of the many reason we need to help our fellow humans, it’s our duty to increase support through agencies like USAid, global public health initiatives, global emergency response, global food aid, global development, education, outreach. We’ve never done enough to support our fellow humans, and now that’s the first place they’re cutting. Do we credit them with the intelligence to call it an intentional part of the strategy to divide us from our fellow exploited class?
