I always find peculiar the people who from their rhetoric sound like borderline marxists, yet have had rather privileged lives and at the very worst they worked part time at walmart in the air conditioning so that they could extra spending money in the summer. The folks who rant about solidarity and the workers, form their macbook while sipping a frapachino at Starbucks.

(No snowstalker, I am not directing this at you, though to be honest you do kind of fit into this category. Tongue )

I'm probably one of them...

So, Jbrase, what's your opinion of antiracist whites, feminist men, and anti-homophobic heterosexuals?

I am not saying they should have a certain ideology because of where they are in life, I just find it annoying sometimes when people talk about the poor and working class and have never lived among them. Someone's talk of socialism is a lot less convincing, to me personally, when the closest they've been to working in factory or on a farm was reading a book about the guilded age.

On a side note: I am not upper middle class, or suburban, or live in a basement, before anyone starts killing off strawmen.

Basically, this entire thread boils down to: "People who don't vote the way I think they should are stupid!" - Jbrase

You clearly didn't read any of my posts did you?

As one of those people myself (and the scion of a long line of dirty hippie pot-smoking college professors who go to Berkeley and vote straight Democratic), strong FFs.

one or two at most generations do not count as a long line. Tongue And I think yuppie would be a better term for your parents from what you just described.
