Oppressors

People who are considered conspiracy theorist, a phrase used to discredit people, often speak of oppressor vs oppressed when discussing things like equity or equal results. It was difficult for them to condemn the summer riots of 2020 because these were the oppressed on the street just demanding fair results. This can be seen in the current way that many have come out to protest in favor of Hamas, whom they see as the underdogs. The plan is to divide people into the haves and the have nots. Marx said this was the way to revolution. Freeman and slave, patrician and plebeian, lord and serf, guild-master and journeyman, in a word, oppressor and oppressed, stood in constant opposition to one another, carried on an uninterrupted, now hidden, now open fight, a fight that each time ended, either in a revolutionary re-constitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes. Some conspiracy buffs think there is a group who are trying to replace our current system of governance with some new form and that requires the tossing out of the existing system. What is currently going on with the protest is mindful of the old saying, first they come for the Jew and then they come for you.
