wealth and power are absolutely terrified because they know the broader path out of authoritarianism involves genuine progressive populist reform, not reheated corporatist centrism

I admit I don't fully understand why the establishment is so freaked out by the prospect of a Zohran victory.

they're leveraging racism, and some of them are undeniably racist, but their real worry remains loss of wealth and power, and they'd be doing sleazy shit to a progressive reformer even if his name was Whitey McBlandon. The racism is just an added bonus for them.
