The radicalism of the 1960s freaked conservatives the fuck out. They saw it as the natural outcome of a prosperous and happy middle class. It was then they decided the most stable form of governance was a system of Feudalism where you have a small group of wealthy elites that own and control everything, a tiny middle class that provides them services and vast swaths of peasantry to provide the labor.
Every economic decision they have made since then was with the goal of recreating this system. Economic equality and social mobility are actually anathema to them and they have done everything in their power to dismantle anything that might create either of those conditions.
How successful they have been with this project has ebbed and flowed over the years but it’s flowing an awful lot right now and they can eat a ton of shit for making this happen.
I am an optimist about society. I think at the end of the day most people are good and care about each other and eventually society will fully reflect that. I am hoping this is just the “worse before it gets better” phase of things but sometimes it feels like they really might do what they have been setting out to do.
So fuck them and fuck their regressive outlook on life that is 100% based on fear. Every two steps back society makes when it makes three steps forward is because of them and it sucks. Fuck them.

Feudalism? Friend, they want to bring back _Black slavery_. There’s a reason they go on about how good the slaveholders were, how much better Blacks had it “back in those days”, etc.

Conservatives used to want to recreate feudalism, but it just doesn’t play well in a nation that emancipated itself from the nobility a couple hundred years back. But then they saw Russian oligarchy…

EXACTLY! And not just _Black_ slavery, but slavery for every woman and non-white Christian male in all of the US!! They will not stop until 3/4 of the US population is in chains!

With feudalism comes justified violent overthrow.

Of course every MAGA conservative assumes that **they** will be one of the elite.
They’re not usually very good at math and statistics…
