Government and corporations are working together against the public. We see this over and over again in US society. Through this lens, a clear pattern emerges from disparate issues like Citizens United and the Patriot Act to tax cuts, education, labor laws and healthcare. Meanwhile, citizens squabble about identity politics and culture wars too much to notice or care.

I'm not sure how it can be combatted. The closest "solution" that comes to mind is to be able to out-meme and soundbite the oppressors so that the public has easily digested messages of unity.
