      There was a hilarious post on r/relationships the other day with a woman posting about how her brother in law’s girlfriend says rude things to her because she’s wealthy.

      Some of the comments when I sorted by controversial were actually calling her out like well you probably are privileged, eat the rich, etc. And one of her replies defending herself was something like “I truly understand my privilege but my current wealth is something I earned on my own. I received no help from my parents outside of paying for college.”

        One of the best ways to made these "self-made" capitalists and all the right-wing business fetishists absolutely furious is to calmly suggest that luck and circumstance played a part in them getting rich. No condemnations, no detailed Marxist analysis, just something like "just because you were lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time...".

        Look I'm self made! I did all my chores at home so I could be sent to the best elementary/highschool/university in my state and after I had to pick myself up by my boostraps to climb daddies company!

    this is what happens when you think you can clown around with the ruling classes' assets without a goddamned worker's party to back you up

      In the capitalist American regime they have a capital credit score where they track all your financial transactions and if you don't have a high enough score you cannot buy a car or a house, you cannot get good jobs, you may not be let out of the country and the police are more likely than normal to stop and arrest you for no reason.

          While you're filing for bankruptcy you'll have a very hard time paying for things such as taxes and fines. You can be denied a passport for owing taxes, and if you get a fine while owing taxes or other fines you can be arrested.

          Also travelling abroad or getting fines may cause your bankruptcy case to be denied because you're not being austere enough.


          Edit: Also I was searching about this and apparently in Australia you're literally confiscated your passport if you file for bankruptcy :agony: .

          If you travel overseas without permission, you are committing an offence under the Bankruptcy Act.

          The penalties you could face are an extension of your bankruptcy for five years from your return date or you may be sentenced to a term of imprisonment.

          If your trustee is concerned that you may leave the country, they can issue an alert to the Australian Federal Police, who will stop you at customs; and you may be arrested.
