Follow the lottery tickets.
Which, again, if you’re a contractor (not YOU you, but you know what I mean), you’re not working class, whatever pretensions you have. You are a business owner and are most likely upper class and well off. Just because they drive a truck and wear jeans and boots to work everyday doesn’t mean they’re not upper class.
But that’s how many people read it, I’m afraid. It’s a problem when actually talking about the real problems with white supremacy in America - it obscures more than it describes. Clarity of language on these issues are more critical than ever.
And don’t forget the least sensible and most easily manipulated demographic of all; single issue “right to life” voters. They are more dedicated to the GOP than any other in my experience. There’s a Venn diagram that covers them and all of the groups you mention, but for most if not all of them, this is the steadiest rock of all.
I’m still waiting to hear the roar when the Q-Anon crazies realize that the new president signed seventeen, that magical portentous number, orders on his first day in office. Will that mean the Biden is actually their savior instead of Trump? Does it mean that BIden is in on their idiocy and did it to tweak their noses?
Right? Much like white trash, I think most people associate “blue collar” with working class, but a business owner is a business owner.
What a bunch of clowns.
You are right, language is important in this matter.
Stupid dopes –– just like many of my friends and family.
Just look at the insurrectionists a couple weeks ago. Almost to a person they were solidly middle-class Americans who had enough disposable income to book a plane ticket and a hotel room.
Once again, I am unable to distinguish between a Conspiracy Theory Cult and a Religious Cult. They’re exactly the same on so many levels.
And to clarify, the only difference between a Religion and a Religious Cult is 1000 years.
Oh you! MAGA is fine, Biden isn’t actually Biden but is Trump and MAGA is still winning.
You see he is a clone (You can tell as Biden doesn’t look like photos of him from the past 20 years) and what they did is the Deep State realized things had gotten out of hand and didn’t want to further push a civil war so they just cloned Biden and had trump control him offstage.
(Man, I wish I was just being sarcastic but I swear they have reached this level of batshit crazy)
Schism. You need to have had a schism to be a real religion.
Yeah, some are floating this over on Gab today. It’s delicious.
XTIANITY: “God is in control. Trust in Him.”
QANON: “Patriots are in control. Trust the Plan.”
Or $80 - $90 flags, and $40-$50 flagpoles. Those flags aren’t cheap, almost all of them had a massive markup in the Trump shop, and he went after people who made bootlegs/non-official versions. Even the signs were like, $3 each.
SO yeah.
a lot of those trucks are on 84 month loans.
you could afford one too with those terms
