Classism!? How can you be classist against your own class.
I have a shit job that pays shit all but its better than your equally shit job that pays an equally shit wage…
Wtf is wrong with people?
Ita like theres a big turd and everyone just wants to be able to touch the turd but some people are touching a bit of the turd thats higher up the turd, some are touching the highest bit of the turd thats almost touching rhe ceiling. Those touching the top of the turd think they are better than those touching the bottom. And those touching the middle think they are better than those touching the bottom and want to be the ones touching the top. Those at the bottom resent the others and wish they could touch any part of the turd that wasnt at the bottom and everyone fights each other to climb the turd.
Meanwhile amazon is wiping that turd off their shoe.
They think of themselves as middle class and burger flippers as lower class.
It’s crazy but they don’t see working class vs. capitalist class.
But yeah, a lot of it turned out to be about prestige. If the burger flipper makes as much as me then I’m no better than them. I.e. I can’t keep telling myself well at least I’m not at the bottom.
I had this argument with someone on FB many years ago and it basically amounted to “I am above fry cooks”.
So, classism basically.
