For those hungering for a taste of the rich, remember the oligarchs are protected by conservatives. You must defeat the minions to get to the boss.

Exactly! Luckily the minions are easily swayed by emotions, religion, and nationalism. Have to use the conservatives own tricks against them

To sway them, you must first disillusion them. They need to see their leaders are unreliable or they'll be unwilling to admit they were lied to, because doing so would shatter their sense of identity.

No war but class war.

The more you try to conflate dated Soviet propaganda with union related issues, the more you hurt the American working class cause. It shows a massive misunderstanding of the motivations of actual blue collar Americans.

Ahh so tell me what blue collar workers want?
