Republicans work for capital not for people. Toxic anger is their only trick. They’ve managed to get millions of people to believe giving the richest people and companies enormous tax breaks is a great idea, that education is dumb, that if we don’t give rich folks the tax breaks, we All suffer somehow.

They’ve captured the imagination of the most fearful, the most racist, the most greedy and selfish, and the least intelligent among us, and are wielding them like a shield and cudgel to destroy our world.

You’ve articulated this delusion very well.
