The elites are actively engaging in class war with you. I don’t understand why so many people are so quick to be little foot soldiers for the people that despise their existence.

Many elites own commercial real estate and would love rents up. Many elites rent commercial real estate and would love to keep rents down, or close the office entirely to save money on rent.
- ip26 3y agoWhen class war is invoked too frequently, it’s reasonable to grow suspicious about any one particular invocation without disbelieving the existence of a class war. Prejudice exists, but if every time a protected class was not hired they shouted “prejudice!” you would not be wrong to question them. Many of the elements of the claimed class war often struggle to pass basic sniff tests, as well. I like to think critical thinkers are naturally suspicious of grand conspiracy claims, requiring strong evidence and compelling argument. None of this is to deny your basic premise- perhaps this truly is a manifestation of the class war- but instead to address your question.
