IDK about you but how exactly is a revolution not supposed to be about social and cultural issues? Class is what was in conflict in Marx's mind but it would be hard to talk about Marxism's natural "scientific" course through history from capitalism to socialism to communism without also thinking about it socioculturally. It was not Marx that moved the conflict from class to culture, that would be the Frankfurt School and more specifically Marcuse (with the Frankfurt School) along with Gramsci (not with the Frankfurt School). They were Marxist/Communist but they changed Marx's ideas slightly so that is why they are not Marxist ideas anymore. They're neo-Marxist and the adherents of CRT are neo-Racist.

Mr. MORRIS. Dr. Dodd, did some of these secret members of the Communist Party, and particularly schoolteachers, work on the national scene ?
Dr. DODD. Yes.
Mr. MORRIS. In other words, did they have assignments in Washington?
Dr. DODD. Yes.
Mr. MORRIS. Will you give us briefly your own recollection of the general assignments that some of these secret members of the Communist Party had in Washington? You do not have to give us the exact title. That would tend to identify.
Dr. DODD. The Communist Party had members in many of the different departments of Government, in many of the legislative offices, in some of the investigating committees.
Mr. MORRIS. How about the advisory committees to the Executive, the various advisory committees to the Executive in Washington?
Dr. DODD. Yes; there were a number of the advisory committees to the President of the United States where we had Communists.
Mr.MORRIS. Members of the Communist Party. operating and aiding you in your work whenever they could be of assistance to you?
Dr. DODD. They promoted the Communist Party program in those committees.

It all boils down to PizzaGate where the Clintons kept kids in the basement so they could harvest their adrenalchrome and of course have sex with the kids too. That was in NY and although the FAkE NeWs MEEDEEA said there was no basement there and people went there and showed there was no basement, what really happened was they filled up the basement with cement and moved it to an Ice Cream store basement down the street.

George Soros has been observing me and is trying to kill me for writing this - he's watching me via my computer camera now - but I'm a PAYTRIAT who is telling the truth no matter what, so I hope people will go out and investigate that ice cream store and find the Clintons, Soros, Pelosi, AOC, Harris, Biden, the Obamas, etc feasting on adrenalchrome and abusing those poor children then videotape it so we can all finally see the TRUTH and then Trump will be made KING as he should be.

Oh, and be sure to wear your aluminum foil hat because 5G is strong in NY and they use it to brainwash you into voting for Democrats like Shoomer.

Jones says the New World Order wants to use Blacks again this summer to burn things down. He sucks big time. But it's all to push people to keep coming by for more of his hysterical nonsense while hoping they will buy his snake oil.
Or, was it the media that wanted him shut up, that told you he said Sandy Hook was staged???
You never heard him say that.... Only media saying he said it. No fruit from any Lawfare.

Speaking of Economics:

Trump's administration passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act which slashed individual, corporate, and estate tax rates. Who benefits from this? Mostly the rich.

Trump's tax "reform" favored billionaires and corporations instead of everyday Americans.

This is one reason why I cannot for the life of me understand why the poorer southern (mostly red) states, with "average joe" blue collar workers who are by and large NOT rich, support Trump and the Republicans who ALWAYS favor the rich when it comes to ... EVERYTHING.

When it comes to the stimulus help, as an example, the Republicans were ALL against it even though now they're touting it as if they were all for it but in fact they all voted against it!
A higher minimum wage - Dems are for it, Republicans against it! Yet those poorer red states vote Republican not Democrat... I don't get it!

This is why people often point out that "people often vote against their own best interests".
I can't see why anyone making under $400k a year (let alone those making under $100k a year!) would support Republicans!

If you disagree, please tell me what Trump and Bush before him did to help the Average Joe?
In any case what Biden is proposing (higher minimum wage, help for single moms with child care, more help for the poor, possibly forgiving some college debt or providing some free education...) are all things that benefit the Average Joe, NOT the rich - which is why the Republicans in the Senate - ALL MILLIONAIRES - are against it! They ONLY want rules and laws and policies that benefit THEM, not us average Joes!

So why so many working class people support Trump is beyond me. What did he DO for you?
And if you're in Kentucky or South Carolina or etc what did Senators McConnell, Graham, etc do for you?

Ha, in his lawsuit defense under oath, Jones said that he suffered from a “form of psychosis” that made him think everything was staged. Jones is mentally ill and needs to seek treatment for it. If he refuses to do so, I will simply continue to be entertained by his paranoid, mindlessly insane rantings. Jones is like a movie that is so damned bad that it's good.
