We've Been Down This Road Before

Not that long ago, a certain successful segment of society was the scapegoat for the ills of the people around them. It seems this may be happening again. A new location, polling of buzz words, but basically the same as before.
A messianic figure, mesmerizing the crowds. pointing a finger at the successful white people who kept them down. Take there stuff by force. Force them to work and redistribute that. No longer a productive member of society? Too old? It's time to remove them for the greater good. The only things missing (so far) are zyklon B and crematoria.

Unfortunately, you are dead on. But they've not picked a scapegoat group small enough to destroy. Yet.

They're working on it. Just as they test all the buzz words and such with focus groups, they are paying attention to how the masses react to demonizing Libertarians, Conservatives, Independents, Free Thinkers, and Constitutionalists. Which they just lump together as lunatics against progressive socity.
