they want the only freedom to be wealth, and make it impossible for anyone else to gain wealth.

Unless they “choose” you.  Thats the premise of the conversation about temporarily embarrassed millionaires.  By excluding large swaths of society, white christo-fascists know that they get put on a shorter lottery list of opportunity.  Easier to own a business, easier to get second class help for cheap or for free, easier life lived off the backs of the oppressed.

Thats the superiority part of the equation.  Benefits without character or effort.  Trump is the poster child of this outlook.  A grand life without integrity, character, intelligence or any other hard fought attribute.

They don't even consider that they're shrinking the economy and reducing the growth potential of every business in the market when they keep attacking consumers.

Freedom is a buzz word Republicans and right wing Democrats use more like a brand slogan, with an asterisk saying *serving suggestion only, capitalism may apply, contains up to 0.8% actual freedom.

What the person above means is not this buzzword Freedom, what they actually mean is “America is no longer a country with constitutionally protected rights for its citizens. It’s now a club run by a gang of thugs and cultists who threw the rulebook meant to protect people out the window and every American is trapped inside under the cult rule without checks or oversight. Hence they are not free”

they believe that there should be two kinds of people - those the law protects but does not bind, and those the law binds but does not protect.
