Right. "Culture War" has been a term co-opted by red shirts trying to say the government is dividing us based on who is rich and who is poor. Believe me, if we were all suddenly rich or suddenly poor they would quickly find a new dividing line to use. They don't care which demographic they need to use, only that it divides us evenly... the same way that bookies don't care which team will win, only what point spread will divide the pool of gamblers to the benefit of the house.
