You've been here. So you've witnessed first hand our lack of social cohesion. We're not a civilized people. We're barely above feral and deeply ensconced in tribalism. Capitalists did a great job gaslighting this country into this situation where we're aware of their abuse but somehow still manage to blame one another instead of the abuser. The Business Plot didn't fail, it bided its time and rolled out slowly and surreptitiously.
