1. Way of thinking
2. Tools of oppression
3. Relation.
Due to how the system works in Kenya, the lower class thinks that they need the upper class to survive. That without the upper, they would have no way to survive. This is shown by people going to work under abusive bosses, househelp mistreatment etc.
Most common being the police, who the moment they enter the force, are conditioned to loyally serve those with money, even if that policeman belongs to the lower class. In the police force, they want to be associated with rich powerful people.
Most lower class members have a loved one or a relative who is in the upper class. Should a revolution take place, there's the very high risk that the loved one/relative will be a victim subjected to the aftermath of revolution i.e. prosecuted, or worst case, killed.
Food for thought.
