Planter: Effete Lefty, Working Class Cosplayer

Honestly, it hadn't really/fully occurred to me that the Woketarian cult still had any illusions about representing actual working stiffs. I recognize it once it's said...but, in fact, as others have noted (I didn't recognize this, either): it's, at its core, a coalition of effete upper-class pseudo-intellectuals and the poor.

The great secret of the last hundred years is that Progressivism is an elitist, technocratic ideology crafted by academia. It has NO working-class foundations at all. This desperate search for a believable marionette is hopeless. https://t.co/67jlMdrSEr pic.twitter.com/jtKhtMxUDV
