Make no mistake about it: this is ENTIRELY because of religion, which allows the rich to fool the lower classes into hating groups that the magical books say are bad.
Sadly, if Democrats were a party in favor of workers and benefits and also gave angry speeches saying how gays and trans people were going to an evil afterworld of torture, the world wouldn't be like this. The bulk of the lowest classes of society are not only scientifically illiterate, they are prejudiced, idiotic, and cruel. They deserve what they fucking get for their religious idiocy.
The problem is that there are good decent middle class people and some lower class people who don't believe in fairy tale garbage religious myths and THEY are the ones that get massively fucked by this voting block of the ultra wealthy and ultra stupid, and since that voting block is over 60 percent, and the psychopathic upper classes won't change and the lower classes won't stop being stupid, political mobilization sadly will continue to not work until something like market collapse, environmental collapse, or some sort of destructive force changes things.
Even among the 40 percent of people not in that block of idiots and upper elites, there is still a large part that is religious and can't name the enemy: it's religion, it's idiocy, it's the psychopathic upper classes, and this moderate group of complacent people will doom us all.
There's not really a good solution to the problem. Education doesn't work on the religious, it just creates a group of people who can't think critically and can claim to be educated. Violence won't work when only 20 percent of society is willing to act and a large part of the religious 50 percent is armed and part of the police apparatus in society. The only thing that will change this is technology that somehow destroys or creates poverty specifically for the religious ignorant classes while passing over those who understand science and technology.
It's hard to even blame the upper classes for exploiting the lowest classes when they are so stupid and unwilling to learn basic scientific thinking. Everyone religious is delusional and going to collectively destroy the planet.
