Biden's popularity is down roughly seven points from where it was after the inaugural, in the low-mid 50s. There is an inflation crisis, a computer chip shortage, an oil pipelines payment system was just hacked for ransom (The Administration blamed the Russians like a pack of retards until it came out that the hackers just wanted cash), etc. The Biden Administration has also partnered with the Republicans in a direct assault on those receiving unemployment benefits, threatening to cancel  them entirely and trying to force the workers back to work. Biden's first six months have been as stupid and chaotix as the first six months of the Clinton or Obama Administration ls before him, and will likely cost them at least the House. He's certainly no Grey Champion. He's another muddling neolib Democrat, and the Democratic Party is the enemy of the working class.

Biden is still popular: mid-60s, not mid-50s. And yes, unemployment checks are not guaranteed income, but Biden only mandated the taking of appropriate jobs.  You seem to enjoy exaggeration for its own sake.

Einzige is still working from an Industrial Age perspective when violence seemed required to change things.  This time around the elitists and the racists found common cause.  Racism rose to a crisis level.  With the racists discredited, the idea that you could crush minorities by crushing the poor seems less dominant.  While ours is a capitalist system, and you need at least something of a capitalist perspective to keep the system running optimally, I don't see how if the racist perspective is defeated the elitist element will keep its edge.

I see the division of wealth bubbling towards the top, and some action on that required to get out of the economic problems, but the major changes in the culture will be non violent.  Einzige is just in the wrong age.
