When Did The Left Start Scorning The Workers?



Do you remember the left, the old Left which used to be all for the working class and getting them a better deal against their Moloch loving oppressors. Sure you do, it was all about organized labor and a just wage.

Then everything changed. They stopped caring about workers and switched focus to bathrooms, sex changes, virtue signalling identity politics and rainbow riding, all the while pushing for open borders and an unrestricted influx of dirt-cheap unskilled labor into the US.




Who stands to benefit from the millions of immigrants crossing the Rio Grande? Existing American workers? Hardly, their wages get slashed. So do the math. Someone, and it's not the labor force, is making money. Let's put it a different way.

This rural Texan town used to rely on cotton. Cotton was king and made people minor fortunes while employing a lot of workers; this town was 20,000 strong in the 1920s, now it's 7,000. What went wrong? 




The cotton industry went to India and there was nothing to replace it. The people that owned the business made a lot of money and continue to do so, the people left behind, not so much.

It's a small lesson in open borders and you'd think that the champions of the working class, the Left, would be up in arms about it. But no, they're all in favor of unchecked immigration, globalization and the de facto cheapening of labor.




For them, fighting for the oppressed means attacking binary sexuality and pushing for transsexual sex-ed in kindergartens. All the while unemployed coal miners live on welfare in shacks in West Virginia. 

The American working class, living in its asset stripped rust belts saw through this and voted for Trump; at least he promised he'd shift heaven and earth to bring back jobs and industry. Will he and is the project even possible?




Who knows, but what we do know is that the Left hates this project and will do anything in its power to stop it.

My question is, when did they start to hate the working class?
