It’s not economic anxiety, it’s people who’ve always been cruel finding a guy that makes fun of all the people they hate and worshipping him for it.
I feel like that ‘economic anxiety’ shit is given to them too much of an excuse. Sure, it may agitate things, but these are by and large people who were already innately hostile to anyone different.
It’s sad, but that’s what it is.
Yeah the cruelty is a manifestation of the enforcement of the superstructure ( specifically hierarchies based on class, race, gender, etc.) as it has been shaped by the base (capitalism)
yeah, this is what I wanted to say
