If the author is right we’re in a lot of trouble as the Hard Left typically emerges on top in such struggles.
I don’t think anyone outside of NYC, LA and SF gives a rat’s arse about the Met Gala or who attended or what they were wearing.

You’re right about that. A moderate group usually first takes power. But they are quickly pushed aside by ruthless (and I mean ruthless) Leftists.
But there’s a rather unique twist in the American dynamic. The 2A.
The elite are moving from the Blue states to the red states
They will turn all the red states blue..
I have move three times as red states turned blue
Example Colorado
Yup. I think the ruling class is waaay too top heavy. Heads will roll when the serfs get p/o’d enough.
Repeal the tax cuts because only the rich and middle class benefit?
Not hardly.
The “poor” have it rich. With a $24,000 standard deduction at least $24,000 is TAX FREE. After that the rates are minuscule for a whole lot of dollars. They didn’t even lose the earned income tax credit did they?
The upper middle class got hammered in the Trump tax plan by comparison and as usual.
The gap to the very rich is HUGE but you can’t solve all problems by taxing their wealth away. They could do a better job with their wealth though. You can only buy so many baubles and crap without putting it to work.
The whole article is meaningless, talking about the obvious. Only the last paragraph is the meaty part. Then it abruptly ended.
Leaving readers with no clue on what she is going to foreseen.
Of course people know either a revolution or a SCW (take your pick) is coming, anybody paying the least bit of attention knows there simply is NO peaceful way going forward.
I really don’t need to spend 5 minutes reading how much a trinket or a ring costs. What a waste of time.
The elites are after the middle class because that’s where the real money is. It may not look that way when you’re wearing a Coco Crush bracelet and your cross-town counterparts are wearing paracord, but it’s a fact. It’s going to be a race between the middle class becoming a revolutionary class and being wiped out. At the moment it looks like a tossup.
Only because we let them.
The burden is placed on the middle class on purpose. You cannot impose communism when there is a vibrant middle class.
I hope so but I suspect not.
I hope so but I suspect not.
The only bastille gates the middle class is going to crash are the ones between their La-Z-Boy and the fridge.
When the cable/sat is down due to neglect, and the middle classer can’t watch foobaw on Sunday, and 3000% inflation has made it so he can’t afford a 6-pack, but never mind, because there aren’t any on the shelves in the now empty stores anyway, then, maybe they’ll rise up, take a peek out of the door and be blinded by that burning thing in the sky, but until then...
Until then, we’re all just being kept fattened up and comfortable enough that we hardly noticed the velvet shackles being fastened around our ankles. Until the velvet wears off, that is.
A new American Revolution could look a lot like the French Revolution complete with a reign of terror. Liberal elites could find themselves facing the gallows and politicians suffering the same fate as the Romanian dictator or Mussolini.
Nothing is going to happen - there will be no storming of the Bastille or Manhattan or Hollywood.
We are frogs already in the pot and the water is slowly becoming a little warmer every day.
In a few decades only a few old people will know what America was like before the filthy leftists destroyed it.
I see nothing wrong with these poodles strutting their stuff and pooping on the red carpet. If people give such trash that kind of money, they have every right to it.
The problem is the people who are so stupid and whose lives are so empty that they actually admire such undeserving vermin.
