In other words, the poor and powerless can do no wrong because they are poor and powerless. If the poor and powerless set cars on fire, destroy and occupy infrastructure, loot stores and even kill people, hey that's okay because they're poor and powerless and it's not their fault that the world is how it is, right?
If you are successful in this world though, you are clearly a monster no matter what, and you deserve every bad thing that could ever happened to you.

Niggers love communism because all they ever think about is foodstamps, atheletic college applications, or million dollar designer sports cars

The whole idea that socialism can succeed is based on the belief that the poor are actually the most powerful group but don't realise it.

Middle class liberals just want to create a child-minded class they can patronise to make themselves feel good.

That's the upper class liberals (and neocons)... the middle class ones just want to follow along to get along.

They also believe making life harder for the working class is a great way to attack the rich. The elite untouched and their competition destroyed.

It is rather that the people who are causing the problems don't understand how much they effect the world and thus feel powerless. If all the looters, protesters, activists, and "poor people" collectively changed how they act it would absolutely change the world.

I'm not sure if classism is the answer. I think degradation is more universal.

Ask yourself this: why are weak men in power? Is it because they exploit a systemic flaw to rule over the stronger "underclass"...? Or does a weak underclass allow for a weak ruling class?

Instability is a conserved property- all civilization is on borrowed time.
