Democrats must embrace war!

The class war.

Infectious greed causes the top 1% of our country to subvert our democracy and rape our future in persuit of sociopatheic greed.

The are weakening our country because they are sick.

They've built a whole fake movement to justify it. They've brainwashed a shockingly high amount of our citizens to believe it as what's right, or even god's will.

The people, the other 99% who are getting fucked by them must do something about it.

The right has made discusion of class off limits in the popular culture by smearing it as "Class Warfare" that is far-left and therefore unacceptable for consideration.

I think this is called issue boxing, which is like the inverse of framing. They did it to neutralize a threat.

Our party must go populist in a big time way. Nationally and at the grassroots.

It's time for people to start talking about class. Maybe in a very stealthy way, but it has to start.

We need a good candidate to test this out, and we need talking points, etc.
