"All these billionaires, for their alleged diversity, share a class preference for the leftmost option to be an Obamacare requirement to buy private insurance, rather than a leftist solution like national health insurance.
[...]
McGinnis is also living in an idealized world of charitable billionaires, who believe in 'giving back.' In fact, giving back has fallen out of fashion among today’s elites."

"McGinnis finesses this dubious equation of academic cache with billionaires’ cash by resorting to incredibly vague language, often using 'clout'[...]. It is incredibly unserious, because 'clout' is not a measurable or even clearly defined thing. McG is guilty of obfuscating hierarchy, & not very convincingly. Frankly, we prefer it when conservatives outright celebrate real hierarchy, as many of the right’s leading philosophers have long done."

A sense of White Entitlement backed by a classist society that does not want Working class kids doing as well as Middle Class kids.
That strain of Anti-Intellectualism which makes sure Working Class kids don't think beyond their station.
The bigots are jealous of minority communities who do better than they do even with the institutionalised racism of British Society, they expect wealth to be handed to them on a plate just for being White.

I feel like the British Education system is intentionally letting down Working Class kids so they don't get the jobs that Middle Class kids have been promised...

“Some of my students might say that class doesn’t really exist or doesn’t matter any more, that there’s this idea we’re in a meritocratic society and everyone’s got equal access to opportunities and so on and so forth,” she said. “Whereas when we look at something like this we see quite clearly the different socioeconomic brackets speak differently in different ways.”
I bet they're the privileged, middle class ones...

@TheZooLady Ok, and are you offering to cover the added 20-30% rent that the extra bedroom will run minimum? How about you take your casual #classism and keep your shit opinions to yourself as you obviously have no fucking clue what you're talking about.

Faster biological aging consistently linked to poverty and discrimination
> By integrating findings from 140 studies and nearly 66,000 individuals, researchers from the Biosocial team at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in collaboration with Columbia University in NYC have shown that lower socioeconomic status and exposure to discrimination are consistently associated with accelerated biological aging, measured in the epigenome.
