whats the worse that could happen lol
It just saves us all time tbh
Cause we’re jealous.
And not in a dismissive way.
Yes, I want to feed the hungry and treat the sick, but I don’t have a dime extra for my kids Christmas this year and I’m fucking jealous of those who do.
This is the kind of jealousy that veers into injustice’s territory. Like, there’s a line between envy and righteous indignation that people don’t always see, and we’re crossing that line right now.
Upper class =/= rich. Love, European, upper class and skint.
Upper middle? No not at all.
Upper? Maybe a little. Mostly misplaced.
The upper of the upper of the upper? Yes absolutely! Because they use their billions to buy politics and rig the world so they get more at everyone else’s expense.
I’m perfectly capable of hating middle and lower class people also.
what hatred are you talking about? can you share an article or story you read?
Jealousy and envy.
Upper middle class? That exists?
It’s fashionable to believe that anyone who has anything isn’t worthy or didn’t actually work for it. It’s trendy to think I deserve your things having not actually achieved anything or spent 25-30 years doing anything.
Also. When the downvotes outnumber the comments you know you’ve hit a nerve.
