The Trump 1.0 propagandists, both foreign and domestic, seduced low-status white men by stoking fear, hate, and resentment about successful women, nonwhite people, and LGBTQ people "stealing" their status as the owners of the US and as the sole heroes of the story of the US.

The Trump 2.0 propagandists had a broader game and seduced black men with messages about "traditional roles" and resentment of successful women. And they divided Americans with South and Central-American heritage with messages about how "inferior" immigrants would cause their own status to drop.

I'm going to keep saying this:

The left/right conflict is always about the American Caste System.The left wants to flatten it and the right wants to strictly enforce it. We need to learn to talk about it directly because it is the Rosetta Stone that explains the GOP's intentions and actions. One's position in the system is the sum of these caste dimensions.

RACE RULE: White people above all others. Black people below all others.

SEX RULE: Men above women.

SEXUAL ORIENTATION AND IDENTITY RULE: All cis/het people above all LGBTQ people.

CLASS RULE: Owning class above working class above the poor.

CHRISTIAN MEMBERSHIP RULE: People proclaiming Christian membership have the right to judge and smite others. And their actions are inherently righteous because of their membership. Also, Old Testament above New Testament - meaning status and force are Christian and Jesus's teaching of kindness, generosity, and forgiveness are "woke".

DIS/ABILITY RULE: The able have no responsibility to accommodate, support, or include people with mental and physical disabilities.

===========================

It's all about hate harder as solutions. The USA was not founded in any way shape or form on ideals of "left vs. right", but instead the central idea of USA progress as defined in the Great Seal of the United States of America art-work symbolism, art language. Which is vertical progress, upward, progressive improvements. Even if the Founding Fathers supported slavery in 1776, the Great Seal of the United States of America is a faith system that future generations would use non-instrumental reason thinking to learn from mistakes and progressively amend the USA Constitution. Unlike the "Old World Order" of the Holy Lands / Mecca, that can not have Amendments, the Quran / Torah / Bible.

Sadly...

Joseph Campbell: A Modern Sage - 1986 on "Inner Reaches of Outer Space" book - Dr. Stephan A Hoeller

1:12:20 I value Campbell because of his great understand of what I call Hermetic America

1:12:30 Namely the philosophical hermetic foundations of The American Republic

His utterances are numerous. I do not have the time to read to you.

Fabulously accurate interpretation of the symbolism of Both sides of the Great Seal of the United States.

1:13:09 Better than anything I have seen anywhere.

This man has reached the objective.

1:13:50 Esoteric spirit that moved not only the people who drew that [Great] Seal, but the entire philosophy the early republic was based upon. And how utterly deplorable and regrettable and terrible it is that all of this has been virtually totally forgotten by our days. And that we have held, The American People, have held in their very hands, handed to them by people like Franklin and Jefferson and all kinds of others... One of the most splendid treasures of spiritual philosophy - applicable to all manner of human purposes. And we have discarded it. And we are running around like beggars, the world over, picking up crumbs from every kind of anarchists, Marxists, this thing, fascists, this thing that thing, all over the world.

1:14:50 All of which, put together, could never come close to the psychological spiritual wisdom that was given to us to begin with... and that we have simply forgotten about and thrown away. And how incredibly unfortunate and terrible this is. And, I know for a fact, that Joseph Campbell feels this very very keenly.
