When it comes to assigning the blame people do what suits them.
And this is why scapegoating works.
When people are confronted with their own evil they switch the blame onto the scapegoat.
This is called the scapegoating mechanism.
Hippies are the scapegoat for Generation X.
Gays are the scapegoat for conservative Christians.
Both Generation X and conservative Christians are essentially right-wing and both Hippies and Gays are essentially left-wing.
And the right-wing political machine has used this to create political power.
But a new generation has arisen.
The Millennials (born 1996-2010) are politically aware and socially active.
They do not embrace the scapegoats.
And they are not easily led.
So the right-wing political machine has broken down.
Left-wing governments have been elected.
And the inequality and corruption of the last 40 years is being reversed.
I can only say: "At last!"
