(3,859 posts)That to me is what this election is about. When FDR said that, he was talking about the 1%. I believe that is the real threat to your grand child and my children, not Al Qaida, but the billionaires and corporations which poison our air, water and food. The ones who are destroying the earth and believe their wealth will somehow save them. That is the insanity of so-called "civilization."
I believe it is the natural impulse of people to become more inclusive over time. But those natural impulses are countered by religions and media outlets which promote white nativism, etc. But time is short and unless we start geting real and justice, wealth distribution and the survival of this planet, we are screwed.
The filthy rich are the real enemy. The rest of us, to the extent we fight amongst ourselves, play into the hands of the enemy. We need to band together as many people as possible, take to the streets and start a revolution.
