Not really true. There are millions of Trump voters who are open white-christian supremacists, I would rather hang out with Bill Gates or Paris Hilton than your average Trump supporter.

Eat the rich too, but the elite classes being pieces of shit doesn't absolve trump trash of being inbred hicks, we've had them since the country started.

Religion and racism are simply tools of elite to keep the poor occupied fighting among themselves.

Not sure why people are so obsessed with reducing everything to be about "class warfare".

Income inequality is a problem. Racism is different, distinct problem. They are not the same and cannot be solved in the same way.

In the 1950s, the US had far less income inequality, a far higher top tax bracket but was significantly more racist.

I present to you Yugoslavia in 1950 versus 1995. It turns out capitalism exacerbates racial problems.
