It's absolutely nutty to me that people on the right will say that people on the left are brainwashed by woke corporations who don't actually care about them while simultaneously defending them against their own best interests.

Like, imagine being a worker arguing for a companies rights to exploit workers. I've seen insects with more self preservation instincts.

It is because they see themselves as more well off than poor inner city minorities and use that to define themselves.
They are like "I am middle class!" while barely making $50k

but they know some poor minority has to work minimum wage and so that makes them think "capitalism sure is great for me! I am better than that guy!"

and ofc homeless people they walk by and shout GET A JOB!

then again they are boomers often so even though they might not make much they likely bought a house they overpaid for from a 30 year mortgage
