    You can judge it pretty succinctly: if they are controlling a resource that others depend on in order to live (such as deriving a wage), then they are the bourgeoisie. What you’re referring to is closer to lumpenproletariat — someone who works for themselves

      Okay, so if they employ someone part time to help with the bookkeeping, then I’m supposed to hate them, but not before? Just trying to understand.

        No! Hate them if they’re different!! Any kind of identifiable difference!!! If they’re not with you they are obviously against you!! !! Don’t just sit around bitching about it on the internet, take real action!! !!! The elections are rigged and useless anyway, direct action is the only thing that makes a difference!!! !!! If you don’t do it now, THEY will only make things WORSE for you!!! ! !!!

        /s !!! !! !!!

        God I can feel your sneering condescension through this post.

        I can almost hear the subtle lisp rasping through your teeth as you read your own posts back to yourself.

        I don’t know what you look like, but I know the people who bullied me in highschool would have bullied you twice as hard.

          Oof, man. You alright?

          Like, I don’t feel like I was being that condescending. Maybe a bit sarcastic at worst. Feels like you’re projecting some past stuff into this pretty hard.

          Genuine beat, you’re worth something man. You have value and people care about you. I hope you’re having a good day.
