The party of the Plantation Bosses and the Slave Masters told us who they were a long time ago, nothing has changed. Their lust for Power and Control over their fellow man is what drives them, always has, always will.
What changed is that decades of propaganda have led to legions of simps and karens who'll rabidly carry out the wishes of the Plantation Bosses and Slave Masters. In the past, Plantation Bosses and Slave Masters needed to use force and intimidation. Favored overseers needed to be compensated. Now, simps and karens beg to be enslaved.
I once read that "slaves dream not of freedom but of becoming masters". I thought it was an insightful revelation, something intentionally hidden to keep people ignorant, but have since realized that very few slaves dream of becoming masters and even fewer slaves dream of freedom. I now know that there are many free people who want to be slaves and many slaves want to be slaves forever. We have urban and rural reservations filled with them.
It's also brutally clear that those who desire slavery detest free individuals, especially the ones who would liberate them. They would rather see free individuals enslaved or dead instead of remaining free.
