Reminder there’s a genuine proletarian uprising in Paris rn and rose Twitter won’t support it
If they were rioting against the proud boys you’d have thousands of accounts cheering
As someone who was just in Paris and saw the protesters, I can assure you they looked far more working class than anyone who attends a DSA meeting in Brooklyn.
Of course, this won’t stop them from supporting massive gas taxes in the USA. “Yes but if they have fair wages it’ll balance out”
The French have 30 hour weeks and ~$11/hour minimum wage in a cheaper country with a better social safety net.

It’s almost like the DSA is a social club for children of the bourgeoise
“The French like to protest and riot, it’s not indicative of a broader trend.”
Perhaps. Yet few large European countries have remotely implemented the necessary economic changes for a “green” economy. One gas tax sparks this, what happens w/r/t other future consumption taxes?

What happens in the USA when a socialist president says we need European gas prices (but also paid leave)!! Do you really think they’re going to balance out? Americans will be so materially content that they won’t mind?
In short: only college graduates deserve class consciousness
