Undoubtedly, this outcome is predictable, given the class-conscious nature of the wealthy. It is rare for affluent individuals to vote against their own self-interest, as their heightened awareness of class dynamics influences their decision-making. Interestingly, when the wealthy actively mobilize around their class-related issues, it becomes easier to convey the concept of class-consciousness to working-class counterparts. In this instance, tenants should readily discern the existence of a class divide and recognize the personal implications of the ongoing struggle.

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.
