- brigandish 5y agoI thought it was the middle class being anti working class myself. It conjures images of Guardian readers at a dinner party saying things like "Oh, aren't we British just so awful!" when someone brings up British tourists in Magaluf or something.

Rinse and repeat with deriding "whiteness", or whatever else is in fashion.
