Bourgeoisification is real. First world workers can have an elevated class status if they own property and investments, directly tying their own net worth to finance and markets, and so they stop seeing themselves as part of the same class as people on the lower rung of the class ladder. If you aren't going to buy low and sell high then that makes you a 🚨 🚨 🚨 class traitor 🚨 🚨 🚨
In the words of the Poet known at the time as Johnny Hobo:
Class traitor? What fucking ever.
I'm just another middle class kid, too.
But if things ain't gonna change, I'm good at self-loathing.
So I'll Class Hate myself with you.
