It is very difficult to come to compromise when there is quite reasonably bitter hatred on one side and abiding fear on the other. Naturally working-class people hate the Right for oppressing them and demanding absolute privilege, and naturally the owners fear the Left since if it really gained power it might be tempted to pay them back in kind for the hideous suffering they have caused.
It is very difficult to say to a cannibal 'ok, just eat my leg'... And why should he only consume that once he has the better of you?
