    She’s sorta right. ‘Oligarchy’ is a big college word that Joe Bumblefuck doesn’t understand.

    Aristocrats is a good word, but again: “duh?”

    Therefore Dems just need to start harping about “rich fucking parasites”

      Yep, this is a branding issue.

      Oligarchy => “rich fucking parasites”

      Woke = equality (equity too, but stick with equality for sake of simplicity)

      People are clued in on oligarchy even if they don’t quite know the exact definition. After Bernie and AOC started their tour, it was Wikipedia top 5 articles. Slotkin is just a right wing traitor.

      Yep. She’s talking about changing optics and messaging to something that resonates with the larger ‘I know very little about politics but I still vote’ group of voters.

      The headline feels like clickbait.
