@dennyhenke I think most of their rage is both all too common and all too justified. Political theorists speak of the horseshoe theory. It's a complete circle that no one wants to acknowledge.
Sadly, those in power now are just far better at channeling that rage than those that oppose them, who are also enthralled and entitled by the same forces that fund either/both sides. Add to that mix the racism that makes it easier to stir the pot and you've got a potent brew.
