Most of the rich and powerful do not give a damn about you as you are just some thing to bleed money and labor

from. They are in cable of feeling what others may experience in life. It seems that they have to experience anything to understand what others go through. Scientist have found part of the brain that compassion and empathy are not as developed in them as in other humans. They acquire power to gain their self centered ends. Why do some Demo not understand this and expect these types of people have normal sense of community?

Some of these “rich and powerful” are Democrats, and many Democrats loop in the upper middle class in their attacks, even though they are increasingly the most reliable Democratic voters. Look around the country and you will see that the Democrats increasingly dominate the suburbs.

You know where Democrats don’t win? White working class voters. Democrats get f***ing killed with that demographic.

If we want tolerance and economic opportunity and individual freedom and women’s rights, we need to move on from “workers of the world, unite”.

Why do some "Democrats" view and describe Democrats who don't see things identically to them as "attacking allies"?
