I’ve heard before that socioeconomic class is part of colloquial existence in the UK. Is this true? In the US our civil religion insists that the class fluidity found amongst white settlers throughout most parts of the country’s existence continues to exist, and now for everyone. So we just don’t talk about class as if it’s real. It’s seen as condescending and rude to act like someone doesn’t have the potential to become extremely wealthy just because they were born a certain way.
