The writer seems to fail to realize the modern Left is more inspired by Herbert Marcuse than Marx. Give credit to the writer for being an old school Marxist.

The author is ignorant of economics, which is typical of most Americans of all political stripes.

Socialists see Corporatism/Mercantilism and mistakenly call it Capitalism.

Capitalists see Corporatism/Mercantilism and mistakenly call it Socialism.

Most of us fail to recognize the Corporatism is neither Capitalism nor Socialism. Both Socialists and Capitalists lose the argument by being mistaken about Corporatism.

Corporatism wins. Clinton, Reid, McConnell, Boehner, Pelosi are all Corporatists. On any given issue they seek to increase the size of Corporatims at the expense of the other 2 systems.

The author also fails to realize the most Sanders, and most Trump/Cruz/Carson voters did not vote for the agenda of their candidate. They voted against the Corporatists, the Cartel.

So, to to the liberal, hardships of minorities, even while whites are enduring hardships has to be blamed either on the exclusive racism of whites or capitalism itself.

Yet neither is true.

I’m white. I’m so evil. I’m responsible for everything wrong in the world. I think I’ll go kill myself.

These days, who has such poor information connectivity as to be unaware that Occupy 99 Percent was funded by George Soros.

"These same stoic progressives merrily torch conscientious objection when the Little Sisters of the Poor or Hobby Lobby or Conestoga Woods or various churches and denominations are begging the feds not to force them to fund abortion and contraception. They angrily boycott restaurant chains whose owners dare to assert that their Bible tells them not to redefine marriage. They harass, sue, fine, imprison, debase, dehumanize, demonize, and seek to destroy the Christian baker, florist, photographer, or caterer who simply asks to be left alone in peace and not be coerced by Caesar to service a same-sex "wedding" that they believe their God would not want them to support. They literally put in handcuffs a clerk like Kim Davis, and then mock her as a knuckle-dragging, Bible-thumping "fundamentalist" in skits on "Saturday Night Live." She is portrayed as a moron at best and a cretin at worst." - Paul Kengor, When the Left Liked Conscientious Objection - Crisis Magazine
