Yep basically sums it up. Enough "middle-class" people are insulated from collapse that they still defend the system even though it has already been torn up. Collapse is happening and has already killed people, it just hasn't been equally distributed yet. Once a "critical mass" of people feel collapse and it becomes "real" to them, they will be able to internalize the reality of the class conflict that caused it. Until then people will just keep thinking that "ah well this is just a temporary stumbling block on the path of liberal incrementalism".
