The biggest con that (((they))) ever pulled was getting the peasants to squabble with each other over trivial matters like race, sexual orientation, and gender identity and forget all about the true struggle: the divide between the rich and the poor.

You are foolish. Everything is connected. The divide between the rich and the poor is this: the rich know enough of reality to play the poor, tricking them into debt, mental and physical mutilation, and so on. The poor needs to learn more than the rich. Edit: I regret using your words of poor and rich. I realize now that those terms are generalizations and do little to actually point out the players. Some poor people know how to manipulate, and so do some rich folks. But not all of them.

Don't apologize. Those words sum it up well enough, and if anyone reads them and takes offense or doesn't realize that not every person described by those words is guilty of what you're saying, they're ignorant.
