    Right. I explained in both of my previous comments that I understand that. I recognize that it’s a similar mechanism of action, and that relatively speaking, I’ve got it good. It’s really disheartening to see so many (the ‘left’ not you) getting so close to understanding that -everyone- deserves to be treated with respect by the default, and somehow turning it into a zero-sum game where, for it to get better for some, there must be a class that suffers.

      It’s not that there must be a class that suffers, it’s that there is.

        Is it necessary? If so, it’s a zero-sum game. Fine. That’s just going to encourage an endless cycle of warfare to be the class currently not suffering.

        If it’s not necessary, if it’s NOT a zero-sum game, then why are we treating it like it is?
