Everybody in the working class that I know supports Trump

How do you define "working class?"

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I worked at a union tire factory and everyone there supported Trump. From the local president down to the workers.

Yes many working class people are reactionary, we know this already.

the american working class is usually unable to delve deeply into politics due to the crazy fuckin conditions they're in. Most people don't give a shit.

Most of the working class are quite uneducated so it makes sense, yeah

The classism, holy shit. Most of this thread is dripping with tone deafness from my fellow hexbears wtf.
