I find it crazy that people want me to strip off an article of of clothing and I’m the rude one for not doing it.

Get yer muddy, snowy shoes off my fucking floor or I will use castle doctrine to legally force you out

I'll give you some authorized home flip flops if you feel uncomfortable, aight?

Also carpet is an abomination.

Agreed tho if its everywhere... Wood is good

Ultra rich wealth/land hoarders/exploiters

upper mid-level wealth/land hoarders,

Depends, there's many in history that can fit the bill (eg. feudal lords (crop rent), industrial capitalists (factory profit), slaveowners (goods and free labor profit), and aristocracy of finance and land (money interest and land rent) )

Their immediate managers, facilitators

Professional managerial class, or compradors for the main dominant capitalist group (eg. the West) / hegemonic capitalist group

Average workers & Average people who are dissatisfied?

Proletariat and lumpenprole?

Let's see here

Bourgeoisie:

includes grande (big) and moyenne (medium) bourgeoisie, but essentially they are medium (regional/national) and large (global) capitalists, that mainly rely on industrial profit, if not landed rend, and financial interest, based around growing industrial and financial production

Though I consider bourgeoisie in its western context, to specifically refer to the first modern form in Europe, birthed from the Medieval period

Bourg-eois --> Bourg derives from the medieval German term for "city", as they derived from the growing cities of their era

Petty-bourgeoisie:

a small business owner (only a handful of businesses directly owned by them)

Proletariat:

wage/salaried laborers who depend heavily on their wage/salary, lest a few days/weeks leave em destitute and homeless

They are historically converted from the destruction of peasants, yeomanry, guild craftsmen, apprentices and mentors, during the progressive bourgeois revolution against feudalism.

Originally, in Rome, such term was derived from those citizens who made offspring to serve the Roman slave mode of production

Lumpenproletariat

despite its name, it is a similarly newly-created class of capitalism, more destitute and ruined than the proletariat, defined by a lack of official joblessness and stability, which include people from the simply unemployed and unhoused to criminals, strike-breakers, prostitutes, and gangsters

They are a wild card that can ally with either bourgeois or proletariat forces

Lumpen (rabble) + proletariat

If there's one moderate critique, it doesn't say much when it comes to political bias ratings, which are often U.Sian centric

Like here are the 3 axes of politics to me

Economic Policy (Base)

{Domestic} Culture and Government Structure Policy (Superstructure)

Foreign Policy (Western or Eastern Alignment

But I can't understand anything when it merely comes to left and right, like in what way are they leftist or rightist, are they economically socialist/capitalist and anti-western/pro-western in foreign policy in such way too, or merely when it comes to culture and gov't policy?

MFW when Japan decides to give a middle-finger to the U.S ~~execution~~ justice system

Yeah, Ik, Ik ("what about the corrupt justice system? The more prevalent use of solitary confinement? The roughly similar rates of death penality in both countries") but frankly, just consider it a rare W for Japan's criminal system, in comparison to the Marcellus Williams case...

Ok I'm an idiot, for thinking of this in the first place... lmao, I stand corrected.
