Isnt it amazing that the largest concentration of the 1 percenters live in the bluest enclaves within the U.S.??
Liberalism is an Elitist mentality, they view the cities they live in as their castles and the poor they pass in the smelly city streets as their serfs that they “graciously” feed with their tax monies like some “benevolent king or queen”.
They pass the responsibility of not personally doing something for the poor onto the “benevolent government” that they feel they must support because they are “rulers in their own little kingdom of delusion”.
Living in a highrise apartment is like living in a Castle, you are well above all the “little people” who live in suburbs and the lower middle class and middle middle class in the suburbs are like the merchant class of old that they resent because their settlements are encroaching upon their “king’s ‘hunting’ lands” and they feel somewhere in their subconscious that the merchants should live like the poor serfs because the serfs don;t ever dare build themselves up to challenge their own power.
I have over the years see this “Progressive Socialism” as nothing more than a form of “Neo-Feudalism” for the people who believe they are better than everyone else because they learned the secret useless handshakes at the ivory town school their parents paid for. This “Neo-Fuedalism” is just a dressed up version of same old damn story that all tyrants have been selling to their serfs when they tell the peasants that they can live behind the castle walls for their own protection you see, and that the peasants cannot have weapons to protect themselves, the king will because you know they would only hurt themselves you see????
OK,
So, I’m not going to use the “Neo-feudalism” thing.
