Oligarchs are on their side, not Ours

The organization of right wing anti-abortion forces was helped a lot by the big money people who wanted GOP to win for other reasons.

Koch, etc.

Nothing new about this sort of alignment of political forces.   Religion has always been the opiate of the masses, enabling their rulers to exploit more.

Meanwhile, US oligarchs have not and will not be lining up to support progressive causes.  Liberal oligarchs support "Globalization" meaning continuing disinvestment in the USA, and Imperialism, War, etc, and heartily oppose all Progressive causes which cost money.

So, there's no oligarch money or organization for progressive causes.  Instead they wield the "liberal media" to push progressives and populists into fighting for them in Imperialism and Endless War.  They have no need to do so for abortion or other rights.  In fact, the opposite.  No right to abortion means more cannon fodder and prison labor.  And "Growth."

So unlike the other side, we are on our own.
