The T-shirt is part of working-class culture. When you say it’s tacky, what you’re really saying is, “Working people are stupid.” And no, I don’t care what your own personal background is. You haven’t been working-class in a long, long time.
This discussion makes me angry, but it does not surprise me. The left is deeply, deeply classist. The left is the overseers, and it wants working-class slaves to help it overthrow the plantation owners so that it can move into the owners’ house and take over the cotton-growing operations for itself, but still retain its slaves to do the hard work while it manages the operation. But when workers don’t cooperate, it calls them stupid — and it really believes this.
How many of you really, honestly, truly believe working people are morons? Just come out and say it — be honest about it. Because the truth is, it’s most of you. You create organizations that are unwelcoming and uncongenial to the working class, because you don’t really want them around.
You love humanity, but you hate people. How many millions of people have come in contact with the left in some form over the past 40 years? Where are they all now? They don’t stick; most of them bounce off. Why? Either they really are stupid, or there’s something about the way you do what you do that drives them away.
I know, you’ve got a few working-class people who float around here, so naturally that disproves all my points. But out in the real world, working people pay no attention to you. You’ve been doing this for decades, and yet you have no impact on their lives — they have no emotional attachment to you. Either they really are all completely fucking brain-dead morons … or you’re failing miserably and you need to find a mirror.

I once asked SouthernDragon if he wanted a classless society. He refused to answer the question. If you want to build enough power to challenge this sort of thing, you’re going to have to answer the question.
