    Every day I hate the phrase "middle class" more. It's a tepid acknowledgement that the working class are less important. "What? You can't treat me like that, that's how poor people are treated. I am middle class you see."

      THE RV'S COMING ANY SECOND NOW

      (On a sidenote, has anyone checked on the dinar communities that one Chapo episode talked about? I wonder how they're holding up post-Trump)

    I and 10000 other redditors making $1000 each is the same as ending poverty for 34000000 Americans

    Ok, not really yikes, but people trying to express a legit idea but not having the language and ideology to do so, cause they are living and breathing in capitalism. I've been lurking in these subs lately, and the anti-capitalist rhetoric is everywhere and a lot of these people are expressing downright radical ideas... Unfortunately using the only language and concepts they have. This whole GME/AMC thing has been a great class consciousness raising thing, and a lot of people are now on the path to radicalising, even if they don't know it yet. Many of them still believe tha they can win, and when Wallstreet inevitably turns off the Xbox, many more will follow. And while many people still think that playing the Xbox is the right way, it won't take much for them to realize that instead you should be punching the person controling the console...
