      This is the home of Joseph Morrison, one of the Michigan men recently arrested for his plot to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. Can we acknowledge that maybe economic circumstances play a role in radicalizing people?pic.twitter.com/zCbNjaZ10B

      I didn't use the word poverty to describe it. I think it's actually a bit of a strawman based on the academic literature on this subject. It isn't poverty necessarily. It's struggle--a lack of future prospects; feeling like you have no stake in society.

          "Lack of future prospects my ass," Walker. All four of them were white men, and this is America. Any one of them could've advanced their prospects at any time by combing their hair and pulling on a clean shirt for an interview and society woulda bent over BACKWARDS to hire em...

          ...because that's what America was DESIGNED to do - *unless* they were genuinely unqualified-for or - by virtue of being ignorant, incompetent, assholes or all 3 - undeserving-of anything more than what they have. In which case, who cares?

          Those feelings apply to millions of Americans. The majority of those people don't plot to kidnap a Governor. A lot of them march in protest. Many of those folks meet tear gas and rubber bullets. Right wing anti government militia member are NOT victims.

          It’s only struggle if you feel ENTITLED to being rich ... that’s the entire point of the academic literature.

          What if you only feel entitled to fairness and not living as a cog in the rich people's machine?

          But even that is still false. There are still thousands of Americans with even fewer prospects who don’t commit acts of terrorism.

          No. It is the middle classes, the petit bourgeois feeling that they are not given a special stake in society. This is not new. In terms of capitalist crisis, the petit bourgeois & the middle classes turn to fascism.

          I think the operative term is “alienation”. I appreciated a recent thread from @cvaldary about this.
