Shhh. Don't wake them up. They still believe in the American Dream.

And they can't see that communism and capitalism are just totalitarianism and inverted-totalitarianism.

I know. I was being silly. And expanding.

I'd go farther to say today we have extremist capitalism, aka exploitationism, including vulture capitalism, disaster capitalism (for natural and engineered events), surveillance capitalism, economic warfare, military profiteering, and a death culture. The entire military and capitalist bailouts exist from socialist coercion.
