yes, it does seem that PHON bases its appeal on blaming someone for something, especially those who don't have much political power because they're easy targets, instead of even considering that the problem is systemic. Bullying tactics disguised as being there for working class grievances. In fact, they divide working people and in many cases set them up against each other.
