    It just all sounds like trying to blame leftists for getting distracted by the knife at their throat. It’s kind of a thing you have to take seriously.

    It’s Mr. Burns questioning why you’re fighting the dog he sicced on you. You absolutely should blame Mr. Burns. You should blame the dog, especially when it’s supposed to be capable of more than drooling Fox News taking points. It’s hard to blame the guy defending himself from both.

      What I’m trying to say is: Leftists are not the ones distracted by the culture war. But liberals and conservatives are being distracted by, aptly put, Mr. Burns.

      In this case I do blame the guy defending himself from both, because the class war includes all of the working class. If I can de-worm their brains, great, and if I can’t, we still have a class war to win. We have to get along regardless or conservatives distracted by fascists continue to be useful for them.
