Formerly prominent journalists Glenn Greenwald and Matt Taibbi argue that mainstream liberalism has devolved into a coercive orthodoxy that reclassifies dissenters as enemies, a shift driven by Donald Trump and the Democratic establishment's adoption of authoritarian narratives. This ideological fracture has realigned American politics along class and educational lines, leaving the working class alienated by a neoliberal consensus shared by both major parties while media outlets prioritize partisan outrage over objective reporting. The result is a stagnant political system where bipartisan elites protect ruling-class interests, effectively silencing class-based debate and creating conditions for potential systemic instability.
