... and you can look that term up if you're not sure what it means.

The real threat is the aristocrats. Those with the wealth and the dark will to leverage that wealth to control the means of generating new wealth.

The aristocrats use the religious right the same way they use libertarians, gun nuts, racists, and so many others. They motivate them, primarily through fear but partly through false messaging, to vote and act against their own best interests.

Don't fear the moron clutching his Bible or his gun. Fear the Koch brothers standing behind him with $50 billion dollars and will to use it.
