Why do British people seem to hate their middle class?

Is Wallace from Wallace and Grommet middle class?

Lower middle.

Because hating minorities is illegal there.

My take, as a working class(ish) British person. Sorry this is gonna be rambly as I'm writing this on my phone!

I think in the USA and other Western Cultures the word 'middle class' is used to describe the working class as well as the middle class. Anytime I watch anything from the US, they commonly refer to the middle class as the people who work hard but who's income is stretched thin. That's not really done here unless people really are middle class - e.g they own property and have disposable income. So that comes into play, it's not ultra poor folk hating on normal people. It's mostly normalish folk enving and being annoyed at people quite similar to them but with bags more money - usually because the money has been passed down through generations.

The underclass and working class are lumped together here. The junky benefit cheats and stereotypical scheme families are in with the hard working families, single parent households, the graduate/apprentice on a shit wage, the young couple working low level jobs trying to start a family. The issue is the the latter list of people are also considered benefit scroungers even though often their income is shit yet they don't qualify for any benefits to top up their income. Or they've only claimed benefits during a short time of being out of work. Or they're on benefits due to a *genuine* disability. The idea that all working class people are scummy also divides the classes, when many aren't. They just don't have a lot of money and probably came from a family of the same who can't support them.

There is also an idea, that I kind of agree with and kind of don't, that gentrification hikes up prices in places drives the working class out and the middle class in. Make of that what you will but it definitely makes people pissed.

I'm a bit of a lefty so this take is probably quite unpopular, but the middle class have a lot more opportunities than the working class. The gap between all social classes in the UK constantly widens. Even if a working class person is from a *good* family (I.e not dole scroungers or junkies) their level of opportunity is probably going to be lower than a middle class person - they don't have disposable income so they're unlikely to have all the same technology, they probably go on less holidays, their chance to network is lower, if they live in a poor area their school might be worse and thus its harder for them to go to university, if they are at uni they get a better loan but again this needs paid back but they also probably need to work through their studies again missing the opportunity to network, etc. Even when a working class person gets a good career, they will probably still have debt and other outgoings that a middle class person doesn't due to the last generation (and possibly generation before) being so well off.

I lived a similar experience and thankfully managed to get into a really good uni but 85% of my course is middle or upper class and it pisses me off that I can't go to half the events they go to or join the same clubs/societies or do unpaid internships to further my career opportunities because my family don't give me money and I need to work alongside my studies. Friends of mine who went to private school did their exams over longer periods of time but don't record it that way - and they had their mock exams unregulated so everyone got As and Bs. So it does annoy me the grades I got in one year, whilst working every single weekend, and having other personal responsibilities on top of them (that I won't PL about) were easily obtained by little posh kids in two who had loads of help from their teachers.

There is also a trend in politics, of middle class, mostly privately educated people saying they speak for the working class. It's so prevalent in the Labour Party hard left. They speak about class politics and all these issues that, to be honest, don't speak to the working class. The Labour Party is also full of nepotism more than the Conservatives are. It feels like its not the party of the working class when middle class people run it like a cliquey extended family business of people who cosplay being working class.

There is also middle class British stereotypes that people find annoying.

It’s about time we stopped knocking the working class and poor ch4vs. The biggest problem I believe Ilfracombe has, is its whole generation of 16-24 year olds raised by middle class parents.

They fill Ilfracombe’s restaurants and cafés, announcing every self diagnosed intolerance. Gluten intolerance or lactose, if it’s trendy to have… They have it. They post on all forms of social media about their wonderful life with photos of them basically naked, or selfies by the ocean or parents backyard. Then tweet about how they suffer from anxiety and depression the next.

They sneer at men working the harbour, complain everyone is racist when they haven’t even left the confides of mummy and daddy’s white suburb. And are generally awful people to be close to in Wetherspoons – even though they claim to friends they avoid Wetherspoons.

However a true nemesis arrives… The entitled teens from London are here on holiday. They truly know how to become a victim of food allergies and hogging social media posts away from Ilfracombe’s own brats. With actual good looks and real wealth flaunted on a private yacht. Rather than the Ilfracombe girl posing on the Ilfracombe princess tour, claiming she’s on a friend’s yacht.

Thank you London girls, we owe you our gratitude.

The middle class are a bunch of well-off braying wankers who ruin everything they touch. The working class are feral scum who ruin every area they move into and the upper class are a bunch of six-toed pony fucking pod people.

Who are you ?! this is a breath of fresh air to me, thank you, you have just made my day!!!!!

YES, YES, YES, I've just sat in a meeting being spoken to like a complete cunt by a kid that has got me the sack from a job because I told her to get over herself lol!!!!!

 

[v.vassallo@freedom]

OK, OK, OK. My turn!!!

I have tried my fucking hardest to please the cunts. (This swearing is amazing lol.)

They live in a world wrapped up in fakeness where they think their Nissan Qashqai, is represented as a Range Rover and the hubby driving around in the borrowed, economy-level Jag, nothing owned or paid for because they have no MONEY.

I have to say are arrogant, destroying what is left of British Society, they think they know it all when they are so fucking asleep.

The son is upstairs on the latest games console living in a virtual existence, where he can beat up and rape women and get a free gold box out of it, whilst dressed up as a warlord.

The trophy daughter sends nudes and gets paid for it via the fame me website and slashes her wrists destroying her entire life before it's begun.

The wife banging the PT.

The old man banging the 24-year-old secretary (just to prove he still has it)

Then when the parents turn 45 and it's his turn to cash in his bonds and shares from a company he has brown-nosed in forever and through shit loads of people under the bus, to get where he is. Comes home to the old girl gone, the daughter in the hospital with mental health and having to go to hospital school, the son following whoever can pay for his addiction.

Their school has failed them, his career is finished and the mother/ wife chooses to live off men as that is what you are "supposed" to do!!!

The kids need hard work, labour and a real awakening, the parents need to come down a few pegs and get a fucking grip, whilst sipping PROSECCO (what's that about?) he sips on Italian beer thinking he owns the world!


I represent the hard-working labour class!!
Us, who strive every day to survive and do our absolute best, are the part of British society that has been forgotten. Whether you learned on the job as you finished robbing a house one day and someone gave you a chance to earn a truthful living or whether it be, you were so badly abused as a young girl someone stepped into your life and showed you that this doesn't have to be the way.

Fuck the matrix and masculine, left-wing existence that is forgetting us and pushing our amazingly creative kids not to be musicians, artists, singer-songwriters, and performers but labelling them with very so-called mental health diagnoses (that is also made up bullshit) , for we have worked so hard to create the lives we have made from nothing.

Our kids know what it is about respect, love, kindness, grace and compassion. They no some weeks what it is to be told NO or the electricity being cut off because some middle-class bastard refuses to pay for some landscape work, because he can't really afford it!

For you reading this overcoming or have had to overcome, alcohol addiction, drug abuse, cleansing our souls from the demons, rising up and now fighting against these pricks in my next level of life I'm up for it!!!

BE YOU AND BE FREE MY DARLING.
MOSTLY FUCK ERM!!!

The Majority of British people who hate the middle/upper class are council house dwelling degenerates who live on pastry, vandalism and Football. Thankfully those people aren't capable of achieving anything and that's why they will always be the lower class.

I present, a middle class husk. Unable to feel anything, many people in the world would disregard its humanity.

All classes of British society are equally retarded, imo. The "working"-class, the middle-class and the upper-class. They can all suck my stinky farts

Their detachment from reality causes them to constantly support absolutely awful political positions. They push for more migration acceptance because they live in predominantly white suburbs with maybe a single wealthy indian family and this makes them think that immigration is great and we need more of it while the working class areas get turned into horrific multicultural hell holes filled with arrogant pakis and arabs that treat the locals like shit.

They also push for soft crime and punishment stuff because they think that all the criminals are actually just misunderstood poor people, and of course rarely experience crime themselves, so keep propping up the culture of being soft of crime, which again the working class areas end up suffering because of. They can't even defend themselves against criminals because the middle class thinks bashing a burglar is nasty and you should just let them rob you of your lifes savings because from their perspective material things don't matter since they have plenty of money so to them losing some possessions isn't a big deal, not realising it's a very different experience when you're on min wage.

It's a class with a massive political influence but their cushy lifestyle causes them to constantly naively support some of the worst political positions for this country.

They're also from what I've noticed the most Americanised class, constantly bringing irrelevant American crap like BLM here (despite blacks making up only about 2% of the population) and recently rambling about abortions. They seem to believe they live in America.

i used to read a ton of brittish comic books and the authors never seem to get over Margaret Thatcher. Before american TDS the brittish had their own Thatcher derangement syndrome.

At least the Thatcher Derangement Syndrome based art was usually legit good.

ANd Trump. They fucking hate him and never shut up about it. I sometimes think they spend more time on a foreign leader than they do our own.
