      Kinda the point to be honest. It co-opts a feeling everyone has deep down within capitalism that they are being exploiter and ruled over by some.... Entity.

      It redirects that feeling to race rather than the bourgeoisie as a means of dividing the proletariat.

      Libs love to play madlibs, don't they? Yes, changing the entire context of a claim makes it somehow the same claim.

      Chemists say ice becomes water? That's like when alchemists say lead becomes gold. Same thing.
