I don't know whether it's wrecker shit or just malevolent selfish ignorance driving most of it, but it's alarming to me how many jobs and how many workers are being declared "not real workers" or "entitled" or "aristocratic" lately, complete with smirking contempt for when those "not real workers" lose their jobs.

Most of the workers being snarked on lately aren't anywhere near rich, either. It seems to be driven by a treatbrained "I got mine" attitude mixed with a "you used to have yours" crabs-in-a-bucket mentality, and I hate it.

Solidarity means solidarity with workers. It's playing into both capitalist and nazbol hands to get divided into little self-interested bands and snarking when someone else's job that they need to survive is in danger.

    PMC Petite Bourgeoisie have investments and property. They "work" but don't have to sell their labor to survive and generationally the barrier to their children acquiring property of their own is non-existent

      But PMC isn't a permanent position. Those investments and property can be lost to them and then they are right back in the borger flippin mines.
