Given that their distractions have increasingly become as destructive if not even moreso than the thing they're distracting from, it's possible.
More likely that's it's just culture war bombast designed to reinforce the whole "everyone except us are evil and dangerous" groupthink that they're using for cohesion, though, IMO.
I consider that culture war bombast to also be distraction so people don’t fight back against them billionaires.
Well yeah. That's what I mean by ensuring cohesion: make them think that every vulnerable and persecuted population group is destroying their lives so that they don't notice that the least vulnerable and most privileged of all people are the ones ACTUALLY doing so.
