I’m tired of having an argument with a “leftist”, they throw every bad faith liberal putdown at me, yet somehow they’ve gone to all the best schools and have traveled to 6 continents for fun in their life.
Are you a member of the bourgeoisie!?!?
One guy I know from uni is the largest shitlib in the world. Absolutely “if a guy won’t vote for Hillary, he’s sexist” kinda dude. Only I know that he’s from one of the largest landlord families of his country.
As someone whose dad doesn’t work I don’t want this to be normalized actually. People would just judge you for coming from a poor family rather than the other way around.
Agreed! One professor literally switched from praising me (oh your dad must have been an educated man!) to pity, after I told him that my father repairs industrial machinery as a profession.
Lmao what a shitty professor. It’s not like they’re making millions lmao
Also agree with not normalizing this, but there are more of us than them. I grew up in a pretty rural part of the US, and we’d talk far more shit on the kids who showed up in BMWs their families bought them than the kids who showed up in secondhand shoes. My dad might have been underemployed (postal carrier, etc for years), but he’s forgotten more about machining and mechanics than most professors know, and now he spends his time fixing neighbors machines in exchange for $ for parts, and bartered goods for labor.
Defs a better (but not perfect) ideal than someone’s father who’s day trader 🤮
