Fuckin nailed it, the right really has been at this for at least 70 years (see: southern strategy). Those evil leftist cabals they think exist? That's because right-wing ones exist and are pulling the strings.

The left (the actual left not neoliberal corporate whores) needs to get its shit together and agitate if they don't want to lose their country to the blend of Corpo-Christian-fascism we're currently watching develop.

Corporations and a vast stretch of the Christian right have absolutely no interest in compromising or not overreaching and pushing their interests, it's just not in their nature, they want to expand. They'll push and push and push until they're (forcefully) pushed back.
