The worker at a MAGA rally and the worker on a picket line at the deepest level are upset about the same thing: that the system is rigged against them.

Not even remotely. The guy at the MAGA rally is upset that he thinks he's being "replaced"—that people of color, women & others get a fair shot. The worker on the picket line is rightfully focusing on the raw deal he's getting from owners & management.

I’m embarrassed that Oprah supposed you. I’m really starting to question her judgement.

This is true in the same sense that Republicans and Southern Democrats were both "upset about the same thing" in the late 1850s...

No, they are not. Literally not upset at the same thing.

Your analogies need a lot of work. Apples and skin both peel; that doesn’t make them the same, at any level.

Let’s just ignore the Confederate Flags and Racist tropes and call it the all the same Marianne.
