0ET,

I was listening to this at work - you might like the discussion at the first half of it:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhD6YoA4_Hw

Brief synopsis - John Michael Greer discussing the current economic situation regarding his identification of four classes - welfare, wage, salary, and investor - investor really including both corporate share holders and retirees. He identifies the whole SJW thing as a deferral of discussion and/or resolution of significant class and economic issues to a triangular game of victim, persecutor, and white knight rescuer (usually monied salary-class liberals) in which the roles involved constantly palliate the victim, villainize the persecutor, and glorify the rescuer without ever resolving any of the underlying causes. Also noted - the dynamic is running out of persecutors and is increasingly throwing its own victims and rescuers into the fire to keep the flame burning.
