Seems a bit of a harsh, and loaded term.
- dluan 6y agoIt's a slang pejorative for "professional managerial class" that's been around for many years.
- systemvoltage 6y agoIt’s also racist.
- julianapostate 6y agoNo It’s just the usual gentrified self contempt.
- systemvoltage 6y agoThis used to be ok. These days, comedy with race motifs is playing with fire. I’m not happy about how everyone is on the edge. Pissed off. Ready to be instantly offended. People gung ho about race, class, status what have you. The world sucks right now so badly.
