This is simply not true, there are some of us who support revolution even though it doesn't align with our material interests out of a sense of either empathy or by the realization that our privileged positions are precarious.
We don't really "count" because we're ultimately class traitors. Discounting that, the sentiment holds. Also "six figures" absolutely is still working-class in high cost-of-living areas; just because it isn't starvation wages doesn't make it PMC or petty-bourg territory. I don't know if Taibbi was going for that level of nuance, though.

I know three, my wife (AP nurse), a girlfriend in marketing and me (retail exec).
