I don't have the link because I don't use :reddit-logo: anymore and a friend shared this with me so we could share the mental damage. So I'll share it with my fellow hexbears now.

      I can't even imagine knowing someone with a full-time gardener. How would you ever take them seriously? If they came to you to vent after having a rough day it would just be like... bro, tell your actual servant.

      This includes Frodo Baggins by the way. His gardener had to literally carry his dumb ass up Mount Doom. I gotta say, being a leftist really ruined high fantasy for me.

        It's really impossible to take someone really when they have someone to wash their underwear for them like a child, in terms of "employing" a maid/housekeeper/domestic worker.

      Truly the worst kind of people.

      That guy in the comments going off about how all South African workers are useless, classic mask off moment Reminds me exactly why I don't use the Reddit anymore

        The conditions for sone South African and foreign labourers are legitimately neo feudal at times, some homes even have "domestic quarters" on their property for the house keepers and gardeners to live in.

        And the miners accomodation is abysmal as well.

        And listen to how your average upper class South African in the subreddit talks about their fellow humans like this. Disgusting

          have you watched the FX show The Americans? it's about deep cover sleeper KGB agents in the US in the 80s, and in the 3rd season, reagan's support of apartheid south africa is a major plot point

            No, but I do know about Reagan an his support of apartheid and South Africa in the border wars.

            o7 to the anti apartheid forces and Cuba for defeating them. And Namibian independence
