Culture war issues will never go away until people figure out where the real source of their pain comes from. It comes from the 1 percenters. It’s a class war. It always has been.
It’s far, far less than 1%. It’s more like the 0.0001%.
64 billionaires divided by 38 million people times 100 = 0.000168% of the population. I like where your head is at but 1 percenter is an old and inaccurate term.
While I think the rich are one of the most influential sources of it, I’m not convinced they’re the only or even the majority. Like, of the rich stopped using bigotry to divide people, would people stop being bigoted? I don’t think so at all. I think there’s something wrong with humanity that makes it easy for bigotry to evolve even in the absence of power and perhaps worse, for people to want to be bigoted.
If the culture war is the class war then the class war is the culture war. Dealing with the culture war is often many many times more actionable. We can and should deal with both.

Well yeah, but it’s easier to say 1%. Then explaining it’s actually fewer we have to eat that’s just a bonus.
Yeah but it’s wrong. The 1% don’t control all the companies and real estate, the billionaires do.
However The 1% are all a part of the bourgeoisie.
