To OP: I think Uniforms are important factor to reduce discrimination based on class.

Just becauae you come from a poor family doesnt mean you should stick out from the crowd. Uniforms help equalize that playing field.

My friend, that is bullsheeet.

They absolutely know when you get from the donation shop, there are gradients of shoes and i s2g some even get their uniforms tailored.

Cunts will always find a way to cunt.

From my time in school, everyone knew who the poorer families wore despite our uniforms.

Plus uniforms cost more, poorer families cannot afford them.

I'd argue survivorship bias might skew your perception here.

I'm all for cheaper uniforms though.
