Guarantee this fucker is about 26, makes about $50k a year, and hasn’t gotten laid since the Obama administration. Buffers his inconveniently large ego with a parasocial Elon crush and pretending to be wealthy on Twitter.

They cosplay as rich when they’re trying to make it look like their decisions are better. But when they need to seem oppressed it’s all about the “wealthy liberal elites.”

u/one_eleven_ Jun 01 '23 edited Jun 01 '23
We should though. Right-wing extremism is totally dependent on billionaire donors. The GOP is the party of the super-rich. All the blue-collar "hard-working American" stuff is just marketing. Marketing that a lot of media-illiterate voters without college degrees fall for, but they're fodder for the GOP, not the thought leaders.
Oligarchy ("fiscal conservatism") always relies on populism (pandering to "the working man") because nobody in their right mind would vote not to tax the rich otherwise. All the paramilitary cowboy trailer park cosplay associated with Republicans is a front for a small group of exceptionally wealthy people that just don't want their taxes raised. Ironically, if there is a "deep state", it's the billionaires funding GOP super PACs.

Got a raise last week now makin 60k fuckin bank. Six bucks til payday with a new Camaro in the driveway and a 800$ a month payment. A whole house of rent a center furniture, 80” tv, and ps5 a year into a 900$ a month four year commitment. Only thing they own outright is the silverware in the drawer and half their wardrobe. Four credit cards all maxed out, one was just for rocket league crates but now it’s 8k in the hole not sure how that happened so fast. Taking a new girl out to Dave and Busters this weekend might swing by bdubs hoping to catch up with the boys and bring her back to the house to show how rich he is. That’ll get her pants off for sure. Life’s good being rich. Just gotta pay off that payday loan from last month that was 500 in his pocket for a night out payments only 350 a week, almost paid off.

I've met quite a lot of moderately wealthy ($10m+net worth) and a handful of incredibly wealthy people through my work - and not ONE of them would have worn Gucci or Balenciaga.
Most wealthy people - and just about ALL wealthy people who made their own money - are pretty damn frugal. That's how they got wealthy, for the most part. If you're wasteful (and those brands are a great barometer of if somebody can judge if something is wasteful) you're not getting rich.
Now, some of the people who INHERIT money will buy that shit all day long

Obviously people are angry that rich people buy their way around paying taxes and then complain about poor people who need taxpayer money to survive!
