No hate for the middle class. I can't help but enjoy the irony of people who thought they had solidarity with capital talking like Ned Ludd all of a sudden.

I think you've maybe finally said the part out loud that before you were only saying in your own head:
You believe that it's a binary state between "The Working Poor", and "Does not need to work to live". You do not believe in the existence of a class of people who work, but comfortably meet their needs and could weather several years of unemployment.
It’s not a true binary. I am describing that most americans believe there’s a binary and that of the working folk, their salary puts them in a certain class.
I haven’t explained my personal beliefs, just the beliefs of most americans (at least the ones I have interacted with) and the beliefs of the GOP.
