Instead of Normans organizing a raiding party for lands, you have Normans renamed as Capitalists organizing a raiding party for a target market, just now in the modern world they also get to offload the burdens of population governance, risk, infrastructure, housing, healthcare, retirement security, training, and social stability.

The Capitalists even named their raiding party using the military term 'Company' and organize its power structure in the same militaristic way, with the leader accountable to them and not the people under/the workers.

I don't agree. I think what's needed is to break the delusion that every American is a capitalist-lord-in-waiting, so they delusionally think and vote in ways that harm their interests (see, software engineers excited about AI and advocating for its adoption).

Also cut down the noise. The "culture wars" (from both sides) are very effective at distracting people from more fundamental issues. I really think one party needs to drop all that, and focus narrowly on representing the common people as workers.
