When you take out the culture war aspect of politics it seems pretty accurate. Culture war doesn’t really affect billionaires monetarily, so they don’t give a shit. It’s just there to distract the masses emotionally on both sides like any good marketing or propaganda.

Culture war doesn’t really affect billionaires monetarily It doesn’t even affect them much personally. Imagine if Jeff Bezos was the most flamboyantly gay man on Earth. He could move to and live openly in Afghanistan with complete safety. He would have to buy off a lot of politicians. But every politician is always hurting for money. Most will happily look the other way in exchange for donations/bribes. It wasn’t rich gay men getting arrested at Stonewall.
