I consider myself working class. We're lazy, good-for-nothing bastards, absolute cop-outs. We never accept responsibility for our own lives, and that's why we'll always be downtrodden. We seem to enjoy it in a perverse kind of way. As working class, we like to be told what to do, led like sheep to the slaughter.
I loathe the public school system with a passion. How dare anybody have the right to a better education than me just because their parents have money! I find that vile. They talk this sense of superiority, and they do have it. The upper classes have all the right connections once they leave school, and they parasite off the population as their friends help them along. You never see that with the working class. If you have any kind of success being working class, your next-door neighbors or your best friends will turn around and hate you instantly. "you're not working class anymore." Being successful or good at anything demotes or promotes you out of that class bracket.
That used to worry me when I was young. "Oh, my God, I'll be classless. I'm doomed." I couldn't give a toss now. I regard myself as working class, but I know damn well working class doesn't regard me that way. That's just the way it is. It was always that way in school. If you managed to read books and know what they meant, you were a snob, a poof, or a sissy. Fine, I accept all those labels. A bit of intelligence was a lot more useful than just being a beer monster and manipulated all your life.
At the end of the day, you really have to ask yourself, "does any of this really even matter?"
Why dont we all just forget about the systems and live for vegetable rights and peace.Toodle pip,
