Comrade you are exactly right. About connecting wirh the people that struggle more financially it's not just a matter of investigating the root of why they think that way(although this is crucial too), but also of learning, the more oppressed is the individual the more they have to teach us about the shape the source the effects of oppression.

As for the people better off the core of the question is the same connecting with them is also crucial, but the argumentation is different, for the poor you don't have to tell them that they have to worry about a problem, cause the problem makes itself quite loud in their life, but the ones with a bit more money they often feel, since they are not suffering quite as much, that they're on the same team of a billionaire, and that's no more than an illusion. But, and here is where things get real tricky, it's a very very comfortable illusion that they'll fight to retain, so it makes dispelling such illusion a delicate process of making the truth evident, without sacrificing the connecting we cultivated with them.

So yeah I think you understood me comrade, really happy with our talk, and I really hope that what I'm saying is close to being correct, I feel strongly that it is, and yeah this thoughts do not offer all the answers, but maybe just maybe it asks the right questions.
