Is this pasta? Seriously wtf is this lmao. I knew some people would end up with brain worms like that after the whole “republican party is becoming the working class party” discourse. Clown shit.

Garbage take, and we’re seeing it more and more. If you believe this, you’ve fallen hook, line, and sinker for the culture war politics pushed by the two parties. The Republicans claim to represent the “real working class backbone of America” or whatever they want to call it, as they continue to strip worker and environmental protections and push for tax cuts for the rich. They will not, and cannot “move left” solely because of their material basis as a party; both parties are bourgeois parties and will not move left on their own ever, and cannot be pushed left anytime soon.

Fascists don’t represent the working class well. The Nazis had one state controlled trade union, used forced labour and cracked down on strikes.

Also the republican party is transphobic as fuck and that isn’t going to change anytime soon.

The working class is moving back to the GOP, sadly. Trump got the most black and latino votes of a Republican president since the 1950s.

Democrats have re-invented their party as the smug, college educated rich people’s party. When Sanders called them the "party of the coastal elites’, he wasn’t wrong. They just elected Joe Biden to complete that transition entirely.

If we didn’t have fascism on the horizon in the next few years, it may have been possible through time for the parties to realign but that’s not going to happen. Republicans WILL go full fascist when they begin addressing the wealth inequality and talking about class war. We’re already to a point where their attacks on the Democrats hit right on the nose with how out of touch with the working man that party is. We’re not far off from getting a new wave of Republicans who address wealth inequality, and when they do, it will be in the vein of blaming minorities, protesters (whom they’ll call ‘criminals’) and corrupt Democrats.
