"Billionaires turned a class war into a culture war to protect their wallets, while inequality sky rocketed. They had everyone fighting over tampons in bathrooms. Congratulations, you played yourself"

I saw this Meme on Reddit and it got me thinking that Dems should take this head on. Especially now that they are cozying up to billionaires. Go on offense.
A savvy marketing guru combined with influencers can come up with ways to hammer the message about Dems fighting a Class War while the GOP fights a culture war.
They promised cheaper eggs, cheaper rent, your life will be the best ever.
Trans folks are 0.5 % of the American adult population
Out of 550,000 NCAA athletes - 10 identify as trans
13% of Americans - Approximately 43 million people live below the poverty line
30% of Americans say they live pay check to paycheck
There were 533 Anti Trans bills in 2024.
Why are they getting all the attention?
How many bills did republicans pass to make life more affordable for you? How many did they block? How many against raising the minimum wage?
Heck, throw some music in there A savvy internet influencer could use themes from songs like What have you done for me lately? Ain't nothing going on but the rent!
Call out every single republican that votes against bills that are meant to make life more affordable for Americans.
Do it often. Over and Over again - Let it sink in that this is a class war vs culture war.
It should include that As democrats we will defend the right of every American to be free from discrimination and the right to their own destiny. List all the things that Democrats will fight for, healthcare, affordable housing, good paying jobs, affordable college or job training, safe communities. We want that for All Americans not just Some Americans and we will fight a Class war for ALL Americans while the republicans want you to focus on a culture war to enrich their wealthy elite friends. Throw their Elite crap right back at them.
I am saying Dems need to go on offense because it appears to me that this is their plan moving forward. Bring up these crazy anti trans bills and force Dems to speak out - then repeat their nonsense about Dems only caring about " culture issues". Rinse and Repeat.
MAGA and Bigots will still be MAGA and Bigots - I've said that folks that voted for trump are either Bigots, Immoral or Stupid. The Bigots and Immoral folks won't respond to such a campaign. The stupid ones might along with others that decided not to vote, might be influenced.
