re: #207 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

Just as a wife who would to try to change an abusive husband is seen as disloyal, an American citizen wanting to change America (by “making it great again”, for example) is not just seen as disloyal, but subject to deportation.

We are really seeing a throwback to an outdated view of politics and society which we need to counter before it becomes institutionalized

What we’re seeing is an explosion of cultural atavism, a longing for a lost past, in which Christian, middle-class whites were at the very apex of the social pyramid - now, these same people see their socio-cultural position threatened and they’re lashing out in fear.

Not necessarily fear they’ll be displaced, but rather, that they’ll have to share some room at the apex of the pyramid. It’s an anti-egalitarian reaction, whether they’re aware of it or not.
