Reminds me of how the poor white small farmers in the pre civil war south, were being destroyed by slave owners and their mega plantations with unpaid slave labor. And instead of getting pissed off at the plantation owners and aristocracy that was hogging all the wealth, they fought and died for those same slave owners who were destroying them. All because they were told that if blacks were equal, that would somehow make white men lesser.
