The feeling, even expectation, that the majority should crawl in a hole and kill itself.
And maybe in the US we should focus also on the Black working class - stop thinking so much in terms of STEM subjects and college degrees, more about functioning at levels that arent so glamorous but much more likely.

I think we should at least order some T-shirts with Peracles' reminder: Dissin a majority: not a smart thing to do.
Ever, now that I think on history. Even if it's not a democratic situation. The majority still will get back at ya someway, somehow.
Edit to add: On your working class jobs thing, I am thinking on that every single day. So many people seem to have had an epiphany from lockdown about being in a "rat race". Where their ego is not in their job anymore. They don't give much of a shit anymore about 'career', they just want something that pays okay and is not absolutely miserable 40 hrs. a week.

Then it's whatever unglamorous gig. Meanwhile, how many baseball games can i see my kid in? How many meals out at Red Lobster or TGIFs? How many weeks a year on a cheap flight to Florida or Cancun, staying in a cheap AirBnB?
