And by "quietly advancing" we mean using the immense leverage of their wealth to control the political whoring that is the US system...

The wealth of America's three richest families grew by 6,000% since 1982.

Gentlemen, do not allow yourselves to become distracted by such trivialities as increasingly concentrated wealth and power, a resurgence of white supremacy, or the global warming hoax. The SJWs want you to say "xir" instead of "her/him". If we do not mount an effective defense against the SJW threat, I fear humanity may face certain doom. :yessir:
