It’s a myth that the working class or poor reactionary supports Republicans because they view themselves as “temporarily embarrassed millionaires”. What they value is the hierarchy itself; they view their own status as just. A poor conservative views accepting ones station as a virtue, and demanding civil rights as a vice. There has never been a shortage of minority conservatives willing to excuse and justify their own oppression with this ethic.
In the conservative mind, the system of ranks and stations is a perfect dictate from heaven. It can only be corrupted by people who have high stations that don’t ‘deserve’ them. They believe systems cannot be improved, only restored.
Can we knock this low effort “rule” shit off? Is it that hard to title a meme?
It’s a cross-post from 196, and the “rule” thing comes from that community. I agree it’s fucking asinine.
I’ve blocked all the 196 communities, old and new. “We don’t have enough content so let’s make a rule that will encourage flooding the place with low-effort, garbage posts with annoying, repetitive titles!”
If I owned the boot, I’d want to be able to do this.
I can daydream about owning the boot.
The boot on the people I don’t like has cleats!
If only Boot Man knew this boot was on the wrong person!
