I'm an egalitarian at heart, as most of us are

[MrScorpio]

Above all, egalitarianism is at the heart of our democracy, without it we'd still be bowing to a British Monarchy.

That why I oppose the philosophy of the Modern Republican Party. To them, we are obliged to bow before their class of faux patricians. To submit to a God, as defined by their narrow set of precepts. To supplicate ourselves before a jingoistic definition of "true Americanism".

It's NO accident that the Leadership ans so-much of the rank and file of the Republican Party consists of the rich, white business class. These people consider themselves our "Natural" leaders, the "smartest and the most responsible".

Pay no mind that sometimes that some of them thought their elite status and connections to the avenues of power gave them the illusion that they were above the law. Even when they're being frog walked in handcuffs and leg irons out of Federal Court. These guys still "rule".

Conservatives have always railed against Egalitarianism. Anytime you hear one scream about "Home Grown Communism", despite an absence of Communists, you can bet dollars-to-doughnuts that they're doing this in an distortion of the record in opposition to Egalitarianism.

So in the end, let me point out that Elitism is the opposite of Egalitarianism. The struggle of freedom round the world for the last two centuries has been fought on a battlefield between the two. Freedom and democracy only flourishes whenever Elitism falls.

I just wanted to give a few of us a little something to think about.
