The Bernie Sanders Fallacy. No, Virginia, there is no class war.

Class warfare is the ONLY selling point that Communism (Marxism/Socialism) has.

“The Bernie Sanders Fallacy. No, Virginia, there is no class war.”

Yes there is a class war. Bernie once understood what it was all about - the big-money cheap labor express pushing for endless low-skilled immigration, to under cut the wages of the poor and middle class. Bernie once called the amnesty proposals a “Koch proposal” or words to that effect - i.e., a proposal by billionaires to keep their labor costs rock-bottom.

Today, he has “moved beyond” his defense of workers against illegal immigration, but the class war that he used to recognize is still going strong. Trump has tried to fight on behalf of the victims - the middle class and the poor - but he has been stymied by politicians of both parties who are beholden to wealthy donors.
