Worse Nightmares

Worse nightmares depend on who gets to define them. But if you're currently one of the entrenched elitist crowd (See EU bureaucrats!), here's your worst nightmare in quite succinct language.
So when the protected class of well-paid institutional "progressives" speak darkly of "reversing 40 years of social progress," what they're really saying is we're terrified that the bottom 95% might be waking up to our Great Con of identity politics and political correctness.
To understand the Great Con of political correctness, we must first grasp the decline of the working class (self-described as "the middle class"), i.e. those who must sell their labor to earn their livelihood.
Labor's share of the national economy has been declining for 46 years:

So where has the wealth that's been generated ended up? In the hands of the .1%
