    One of the most scorching takes I ever saw from a my-hero cultist was that my-hero was actually working class because he works so hard and that teachers were the actual authoritarians.

      Working class: jeans, country music

      Elites: telling me how to write cursive

        You'd be surprised how many people internalize that belief and take it into adulthood. Mrs. Meanface leaves an impression on some people.
