Despite posturing as if they care about the American middle class, behind closed doors our political elites, alongside their media servants and the guardians of academia who do the bidding of the collectivist elite, despise them. The war against the American middle class is intentional, for it is only the American middle class that has power to stop global collectivism and the new feudalism emerging across the world. To prevent this from happening, our elites and their allies divide the American middle class to weaken and subdue it, thus enabling their collectivist agenda to continue apace, even as they speak platitudes to their middle-class victims.
There are two middle classes in America: the servile middle class and the independent middle class. The servile middle class is made up of those who work for global corporations and our governments: including local, state, and federal. These middle class and upper middle class livelihoods, northern Virginia being ground zero, are the byproduct of serving the global collective elite who run the corporations and operate the governments these Americans serve.
The independent middle class, by contrast -- the middle class of entrepreneurs, those who work for them, and the upper middle classes who work for the businesses that are targeted for destruction by the collective elite (like oil and natural gas businesses and their employees) -- is free from the parasitic rot of global collectivism and must, therefore, be destroyed. For this middle class exists independent of the collectivist machinery.
The politicization of the servile middle class has become apparent for all to see. Corporations are mandating woke policies that all must accept to continue working for them. Agents of the state are sent to hound and arrest their fellow citizens on behalf of the global collectivist elite. I

Its not “collectivist”.
This war is tribal. Or call it a caste war. Or call it a class war. Or call it a war of religion. None of these are entirely correct, but some mixture of the above captures a complex and “fuzzy” truth.
There is an overclass, that controls all institutions, that sees the middle class as an enemy, a group that can overthrow them.
Its certainly not “collectivist” as nearly every one of those people in the “overclass” has a social and economic position, or desires one, outside of the mass of the despised enemy. They do not want a single controlling entity to rule THEM either. Certainly they do not want to be reduced to just another powerless cog in the collective. It is all about their status after all.
true dat.
Individualism vs Collectivism
Some people do not make good slaves.

I think you misunderstand what is meant, in this case, by collectivist. Some governments are designed to rule for the benefit of the collective (communism, fascism, feudalism) while others are oriented in favor of the individual (i.e. Classical Liberalism, our Constitutional Republic and yes, at the extreme, anarchy).
Collectivist governments with ruling elites (the overclass) govern by what "they" think is best for everyone i.e. the collective. They are threatened by individuals who choose to decide what is best for them and by consequence collectivist governments tend towards totalitarianisms.
