No! They aren’t interested in the system! Their ideology upholds the system for them. That frees their CONSCIOUS minds not to worry so much about the system and more about not ceding a single inch to their ideological opponents.

And yes, the way America is set up right now—even if they operate within the same system, without a critique of that system—Deray is a major ideological opponent of a lot of America’s powers-that-be.

No one is conscious of the system until it is threatened. Til then, they’re worried about change within the system. They really ain’t worried about y’all trying to change the system altogether (maybe some old-school hard-line anti-communists but in general not so much)

And they ain’t worried about y’all bc y’all don’t have very much power or influence! But Deray has a little power and a fair amount of influence and can help build for change within our existing economic and political system... so they’re worried about him.

Anyway that’s my long-winded $.02. Start actually troubling the system... THEN the system will hit back. Til then they aren’t thinking about upholding the system, they’re thinking through their ideology, which upholds the system for them.
