Totally. I didn't mean to imply that rural Americans aren't uniquely oppressed, but Democrats/Republicans don't offer them anything. So they go after the 'other' because they don't think they're being treated fairly. There's a reason when someone runs on fixing the plights of the working class, the fundraising map looks like this.
Oh what I was getting at was that what was described here was not a unique oppression. It's just the same oppression everyone gets. All the marginalised groups get EXTRA. The problem is that they do not recognise this and see the standard capitalist oppression everyone gets as unique to them and equal to the oppressions that are receiving what they perceive as "special treatment".
I argue that the rural proletariat won't unite with the urban proletariat until this distortion is eliminated. It is one of the primary things in their mindset that is used to drive their anger and division with marginalised groups in an effort to split them from the urban proletariat.
