Exactly.

Whenever the mask of "liberal democracy" slips off, we get so much clarity as to the true nature of what wears it. I actually prefer that honesty and I make sure to look closely and learn as much as I can from those moments. The tendency of liberal ideology to produce a cult of systemically oppressed who have a strong subconscious urge to only see the mask quickly restored, frustrates me endlessly.

Vibes-based politics is the opium war of class consciousness.
