Your mother is a whore.

No fucking shit.

Being poor isn't a fucking "identity". Or is that the newest excuse of people who just don't want to work?

The real question is, why do people think its smart to write a paper worth of words in multiple twitter messages?

If that's the same guy who wrote those tweets, then, no, he doesn't. He's a typical liberal who thinks he knows what the working class REALLY think. He learned that "temporarily embarrassed millionaire" meme in school just like I did.

Cancer thread

Sage this shit

This is stupid, what kind of faggot just gives up and says, "Yep, I'm poor, better vote for the candidate who will give me shit for free."

his entire argument is quoting other, smarter people

There are people who base their identity on something negative. We call them leftists. Mentally sound people do not buy into victim culture.

If niggers would see themselves as temporarily embarrassed millionaires maybe they'd do something with their life instead of identifying as poor and giving up like a tard

I guess Michael Moore is the only liberal who has come the closest to "getting it." Every other liberal is so out-of-touch, it is baffling.

Literally buzzfeed, the definition of ``fake news''. I know this is ad hominem, but if you write for them you just lost all credibility and journalistic integrity to me.

I'm the antisocial high school dropout son of first generation immigrants who fled a dictatorship and barely spoke english when they came to this country (LEGALLY)

I make about 100k annually because i bust my ass

poor people usually deserve to be poor

It's hard to believe they get paid to regurgitate Sociology 101-tier psychobabble.

no. the 'temporarily embarrassed millionaire' thing is a hackneyed leftist term thought up by some well off professor ripping of his econ class with $200 books. this retard thinks Trump is gonna fuck over white workers somehow but can't say how. in reality they just want some fucking job security at the factory, is that so much to ask?

there used to be upward mobility. without it we are third world like Brazil or Mexico. Everybody should think they can be richer. Whats the point otherwise. Twitter spic should also attribute to the author when he steals quotes - John Steinbeck

>White people lie so they don't seem poor
>Those blacks who live on welfare and have to buy $200 shoes? Totally irrelevant

Leave it to a faggot spic to achieve one of the funniest acts of double think ever.

omg what a revolutionary insight into the mind of the proletariat

>mexican "intellectual" tries to explain why a group of people left a party to rot that did nothing for them while he benefits from it

guess he has Mexican privilege

what a fucking retard.
>when you're poor and blam yourself, what happens next? XENOPHOBIA
this dipshit was just rambling on the way to his point but lost the fucking thread, and as a result his conclusions make no sense. he doesn't understand, he may at least be trying to through many layers of condescension and arrogant faux-solidarity, but he still sees everyone who greets him kindly at the store as a backwards redneck who just doesn't "get it" as these libshits are so fond of saying.

hillary won with voters making under 35k

trump won with people who have real jobs and dont want to see the country get fucked by idiot open border democrats

I think he has a low IQ or something. I mean, I'm not worse than a millionaire, I just have less money.

'When you're white ... you don't know what it's like to be poor' -Bernie Sanders

i had the same thought

all that to rip off a decades old famous quote

>you are blessed if you have material wealth
lmao into the fires of hell he goes

but he is a kike, he was going already

that last one

>I've spent my entire life in an urban bubble
>rural people need to get out of their bubble

p. sure it's upton sinclair

I'm so glad we have Mexicans telling the white working class what's up with the white working class.

>fuck trump and fuck white people
>also poor people

He must have really stood out in a mostly white rural town

Because being poor and retarded is a recipe for disaster in our current system. Do you even understand how Capitalism works? Their options are to stay at home and get free money or work some shit job that basically pays the same amount. I'm not going to defend them but I can see why some people will go with the lazy option.

>this guy posturing as some kind of thinker when all he did was read some John Steinbeck quote that he thought was cool

No, he isn't right.

People want to put food on the fucking table. Liberals don't understand this.

Some people don't want government handouts, they want to work. They don't want mummy and daddy to pay for them to go to college so they can protest about (insert inane and poorly thought out social justice cause). They want to have the opportunity to be free and create their own destiny.

Poor whites voted because, hello idiot, jobs have been outsourced because the cost of living in the US means some rich prick makes more money if they move the factory.

There is literally not enough white collar work to go around. There is a need to have a labour force. Which has been destroyed by previous policies.

Google "temporarily embarassed millionaires"
He's not speaking from authority as "a guy who grew up around rednecks", he recycling HuffPo memes as "personal anecdotes" like attention-whoring shitlibs always do.

wow what an original and insightful point of view that only an oppressed person of color could learn while being besieged on all sides by white people and not a witty little quote he picked up while circle jerking with his fellow socialist cuckholds.

Temproarily... I recall a comedian doing that bit a bunch of years ago. A joke somewhere at least.

Sounds like George Carlin but idk. The quote is originally from Steinbeck (a communist):
>"I guess the trouble was that we didn't have any self-admitted proletarians. Everyone was a temporarily embarrassed capitalist. Maybe the Communists so closely questioned by the investigation committees were a danger to America, but the ones I knew—at least they claimed to be Communists—couldn't have disrupted a Sunday-school picnic. Besides they were too busy fighting among themselves.

Does anyone actually believe this?

Every time I hear it, it seems like another condescending way to mock the poor people and call them delusional.

As someone with a manufacturing job in MI no, it's because everyone was leaving due to tariffs

It's almost like people want to have nice things as well despite being poor. Niggas should stop lying to themselves and eat dirt'n'leaves. Who do these poor people think they are? Hahahaha, retards.

>le temporarily embarrassed millionaires meme
does he think he's making some sort of insightful or original point?

>temporarily embarrassed millionaire
Literally no poor white person I know thinks that. I'm fucking poor and I don't think that.

Keep doubling down on this shit retards. I'd love to see more Dems lose more seats in 2018 and I absolutely would love to see 8 year of Trump.

families are always rising and falling in america

>salty libcuck demands the lower class should feel poor and ashamed, that money is everything, and they are helpless to improve their lot in life without the support of their government.

>also saying this when all these poor niggers are aspiring to be billionaire rappers and buy huge TVs and shit

I don't use Twitter, but I think there's a limit so you only write short post

>Okie
>posting from Queens

Bot that guy, but thino he's asking why people think twitter is the ideal platform to share expanded ideas, when it's clearly not.

This is an ancient talking point.

>They see a better future for themselves, lol. Why not jus be acommie
Literally not an argument

He's not being original, he's just parroting an old John Steinbeck line.

I like white people. They are the coolest. Very civil and safe. God bless the white man.

You're not being fucking exploited you commie, poor people are poor because they didn't work hard and weren't clever, that's a fucking fact, how do you not get that?

I was poor for awhile too, then I busted my ass and am in a position where I could open my own shop soon. It's so fucking easy to not be poor it blows my mind when I think about the fact I once was.

I was a fucking liberal then too, because I made excuses instead of making results. This shit has made me angry.

He's literally just parroting an old meme, is he incapable of independent thought?

>passing privilege
Ah yes, lest we forget that the only crime worse in the eyes of the left than being born White - being born light-skinned enough to pass for being White.

It's like they are working to improve their situation instead of sitting around bitching that they identify as 'poor'

>people who actually want to get out of poverty
VS
>huur I'm poor cuz da white man be keeping me down bro. Gibs me dat

>MUH IDENTITY

I guess he is right... in the universe where Clinton won.

>poor people blame immigrants
>research shows that immigrants lower wages for the poor, and increase income inequality
They're not wrong. You're just stupid.

>nationalreview.com/article/430113/immigration-statistics-mariel-boatlift-low-skill-wages

this whole thing reads like some libtards roleplay on his understanding what the white working class is taught by his college genderfluid blackkin troon sociology professor and not through actual lived experience

>not thinking it's societies fault and you are the reason for your situation and you could become a millionaire is the equivalent of thinking you're a temporarily embarrassed millionaire

That said, poor rural whites are still retarded
