It ' s leftright side or leftright side on screen ? <| sep |> I live in a very big fashionable city and cannot recall a time in recent memory when knee high boots of some sort weren ' t inpopularworn all fallwinter long . The idea that they ' d be out as a large category is kind of funny to me what else would you wear when it ' s cold out and you want to wear a skirt ? <| sep |> thats two people of the tribe trying to scam you this year . its like stereotypes exist or something <| sep |> It ' s not so much wealth as disillusionment . Both the very poor and very rich don ' t have much in the way of cultural motivation the one goal that is constantly emphasised in western society is to make it rich . The desperately poor know that ' s never going to happen , while the very rich have already done that , or never needed to do that in the first place . So basically , they don ' t have anything to do , and are miserable and alienated because of it . Enter the extremist . Extremists have a very attractive worldview there is an ultimate good , and an ultimate evil fighting for supremacy . They , obviously are the ultimate good , and since the stakes are infinite , anything can be done to the opposition because they have no redeeming qualities . This gives both the rich and the poor a solution for their problems . They now have a purpose that cannot be fulfilled by definition , which means they ' ll always have something to do . They are also surrounded by like minded people , who shared their experiences and values . Seems like a winwin right ? Nope . That ' s not how reality works . The rich may get meaning , but now they have to deal with both internal and external power politics , purges and the like . The poor , meanwhile , are still the same pawns of the rich that they ' ve always been . Hitler and Stalin weren ' t dying by frostbite and starvation in Stalingrad , Mao wasn ' t eating clay to stop the hunger pangs , Bin Ladin wasn ' t flying the plane on 911 , and AlBaghdadi isn ' t living under constant bombardment in Aleppo . And all of the moderates , people who already had meaning and just want to get on with their lives either get caught in the crossfire , or are deliberately targeted for not being a part of the ultimate good . If you want a good example of how normals people get sucked into extremism , I ' d say Fight Club is probably the best , since it speaks well to a western audience without having the same political charge that real world examples do
