    Well like it or not, some members of the working class want to perpetuate hierarchy, so it’s a useful distinction.

      Yes, it is a distinction, jargon used in politics.

      I still see it as a learning and teaching opportunity when you meet people like that.

      Hard to change minds and you need to listen much more than talk, neutral stances as a start then as you are more of an acquaintance you can get into the nitty-gritty topics.

      Thanks for pointing it out!
