&gt; IMO, this is one of the reasons that people are into at least talking about Bernie Sanders style socialism.<p>Yeah but that doesn&#x27;t make it right. Look at the lashback from the right against Immigration and the rise of Donald Trump. It has been hard for everyone, and human nature is to find individuals or groups to blame.<p>I am an advocate of sanity on both ends. The left loves to talk about &#x27;revolution&#x27; (as if right wing doesn&#x27;t love to do that, except it calls it &#x27;secession&#x27; and &#x27;nullification&#x27;) but the harsh truth is, we are about a million miles away from a revolution&#x2F;secession&#x2F;nullification.<p>A revolution against the &#x27;injustice&#x27; won&#x27;t move 2 blocks from Times Square before it goes so violent that it would be an effective stalemate.<p>There are far too many private guns in America for there to be a successful revolution. Civil War is more likely (lets not forget this is what really happened in China and Russia).<p>Similarly a secession&#x2F;nullification isn&#x27;t happening irrespective of how many illegal immigrants arrive in this country (again thanks 2nd amendment for that).<p>The principles true for the rest of the world just aren&#x27;t that easily possible for America. There is no extreme right wing or left wing party winning election (Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders are hardly the American Golden Dawn, UKIP or Hollande of America). American citizenry is heavily armed and hate speech is legal. Neo-nazis can freely march in America (that surprisingly neuters the power these groups have).
