And I supposed I meant to say "leftist" as opposed to "liberal" on this board.

The interesting part of our present day is that the Spectacle is getting better and better at including more people. The marxist critic would say that it's a capitalistic imperative to do so - the Spectacle (and thereby the market that the Spectacle shapes) works better the more inclusive it is. It's why something like the "Shakespeare for rednecks" production in OP's vid is produced and disseminated by the highest elites of our culture (i.e .Trump). Of course the reality is that the power and wealth is still controlled (even more so now) by those same elites, but the Spectacle of it (that is, the _representation_ of reality) is a neoliberal heyday.
