  1. For those still pushing #fairphone & #shiftphones as if they're reasonable options for everyone, you are #classist clowns at best. Spending $800 -$900 is nowhere near reasonable an amount of money to spend on a smartphone, when there are dozens of similar options in the big tech sphere for under $250 & if we switch our own OS, that likewise gives us dozens if not hundreds of similar options with #CalyxyOS & #PostmarketOS for that under $250 price point on a similar device.

  2. As a #Displaced #Indigenous #Latina family we've never had the privilege of savings, nor family nor community

    My father's financial abuse left us in worse poverty than what we endured while he had control of our lives - his last words to me were full of ablist and sexist BS

    Many assume that the poor just don't know how to manage financial obligations

    Fuck off with that #classist #ablist SHIT

    I love seeing assholes propagate things like "don't get scammed pay the govt for them"

  3. the #problem is that #people care more about being absolved on their complicity in horrific unjust #systems than they do about the systems themselves. "is it #classist to be against fast fashion, since that's all some people can afford?" no its classist to keep people in a state where their only meaningful option to clothe themselves is shitty products of #slave labor. everyone's guilty bitch the system won't let your hands be free of blood, lets get you some #class #consciousness

  4. If your #revolution doesn't also include harm reduction to marginalized folks, your revolution is both #classist and #ablist

    Just how much worse than Scott Morrison et al (the architects and supervisors of #Robodebt with its allegedly linked 2000 dead Australians) are these refugees?

    Morrison has been given Australia's highest civilian award AIUI. Clearly the worst of the worst is OK with Albanese's gov as long as they're part of the Canberra in-group.

    I'm looking at the ugly possibility that Albanese's government is deeply #Classist.

  6. Nearly Two Years After Being Indicted on #Racketeering Charges in #Georgia, the First of 61 #StopCopCity Defendants is Set to Start Trial Today

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: July 7, 2025 via #WeelauneeTheFree

    Repeated Evidentiary Violations, Dismissals of Charges, and More Than 200 Unresolved Motions Have Plagued the State’s Efforts to #Criminalize a Political Movement

    ATLANTA, GA – "Nearly two years after being indicted on State racketeering charges in Georgia, the first of 61 Stop #CopCity defendants charged with #RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations) will go to trial today, Monday, July 7 at 9 am in Fulton County Superior Court. A press conference will also be held today after the trial adjourns.

    "#AylaKing filed for a speedy trial in October 2023, but their case has been held up on appeal while higher courts considered whether Georgia’s speedy trial statute had been violated and whether King’s rights had been denied. Multiple pretrial motions and the possibility of additional motions being filed this morning could delay the start of the trial, but according to Fulton County Judge Kevin Farmer, jury selection will begin today.

    What: First of 61 Stop Cop City RICO trials for Ayla King and press conference
    When: Monday, July 7, 2025: Trial at 9am; Press conference at 4pm or when trial adjourns
    Where: Fulton County Superior Court, 185 Central Ave SW, Courtroom 4D

    " 'Despite facing two decades in prison—nearly as long as they’ve been alive—Ayla King has bravely pushed for a speedy trial, and will now, after two years, finally see their day in court,' said local community member Evan Grace. Supporters of King argue that the charges are politically motivated. 'We know these charges are meant to bully us into silence, but the movement to Stop Cop City has always taken the courageous path, the one in righteous opposition to the #racist, #classist, violent system of #police and #prisons,' continued Grace. 'King, all the Stop Cop City defendants, and everyone coming out to show support during this trial will prove that the scare tactics they throw at us will never stop us from fighting back.' "

    Yep that’s me. You’re probable wondering how I found myself arguing with #ableist #classist peeps overflowing with privilege on LinkedIn…

    Maybe because ones here who hail maga don’t have jerbs.

    But yes, you’re right, I shouldn’t have to.

  8. “From the start…, America has been a #white #supremacist, #classist, #misogynist nation. … It has taken only weeks for the Tr*mp–M*sk administration to start removing…any mention of non-whites & non-males from…government websites & organizations.” open.substack.com/pub/wearespe

    if you're not helping the downtrodden and the poor, you're not a #Christian, you're a sadist cosplaying as one to use "christianity" as an ingroup hate symbol against outgroups, reducing "christianity" to nothing more than a #transphobic, #homophobic, #racist, #classist gang. one such indecent ignorant person destroys #Christianity by corrupting what it means to others more effectively than 100,000 atheists

  10. Since my last post was #controversial. Here's one for you:

    Plastic bag bans are #classist and actually cause way more #environmental harm than good.

    #COVID19 tore the 'mask' off how completely #racist #ableist #ageist #classist our whole Normal was

    The rush to return to that (for the sake of comfort & the #StockMarket) speaks volumes about how far this country has to go to achieve #libertyandjusticeforALL

    For me, #WearAMask = #OptOut of the giant #Eugenics experiment that is now Normal

  12. @elmyra

    I feel like #COVID19 laid bare exactly how #racist, #ableist, #ageist, #classist our 'normal' was. The rush to return to that feels like we've all decided to participate in a giant #eugenics experiment

    I opt out, y'all
    Gonna keep my #MaskUp & work toward a better world 😷

  13. When I’m complaining about the official #transition ing process, let’s continue a bit. The only reason why I already have my diagnosis is that I have the financial means to go for private healthcare. To be fair, in the Netherlands this isn’t actually all that expensive if you pick the right #HealthInsurance company (Read: Menzis or one or two others) that will fully cover all legal costs even if the provider hasn’t contracted with them.

    Now #Psytrans that I am with (the only gender-clinic without insane waiting times) has no contracts with any health-care providers and I picked my health-insurance accordingly. Still: I have to pay first and only get to reimburse the cost later.

    So here is the invoice that I paid yesterday, it does not include the cost for the intake because that was still in 2023.

    Now I am in the very luck situation where I have the liquidity to pay that on short notice without any problems. Many people do not!

    The takeaway is that the system is not just #transphobic but also #classist.

  14. @Walker For as long as I have been going there, the operator does multiple laps in a band around the outside. That's where everyone skates, and the ice gets really chewed up. The center sees very little use.

    He's not lazy, stupid, incompetent and an alcoholic, etc. You're an #classist #techbro who thinks that because he's good with computers and makes a bunch of money, he knows more than blue collar workers.

    Stop punching down. This country is already brutal as hell to #serviceindustry people.

  15. @chu
    Some of the culture built into a language, such as Chinese, include not so good elements such as #classist distinctions. The lack of these in English leads to complaints that "Westerners just don't get our culture" but can also be enabling.

    A consultant for Korean Airlines, at the time notorious for mistakes and accidents, forced pilots and co-pilots to speak English. This overcame the cultural taboo of a copilot correcting a higher ranking officer, thus letting them avoid fatal mistakes.

  16. ""poor #people are happier with less" and "#money won't buy #happiness" is literally #classist #propaganda. stop buying into it and start making #molotov #cocktails"

    “money won’t make you #happy” well i’d be a lot #happier if i knew a #medical bill wouldn’t send me into #financial #ruin"

    > I tell people that our #criminal #punishment system is #racist, that it's #classist, that its #sexist, that it's #transphobic, and that it's more. I tell people that we spend a lot of #money on locking people up in our country. Too much money on locking people up in our country. $70B to be exact, every single year, to lock people up...even with all of that...we're still a country that lives with #fear...

  18. I work with someone who said that we don't want our docs to specifically be welcoming to anyone but experienced #developers , and I was gobsmacked.

    Aside from newer developers being the lifeblood of continual product adoption and thus continual revenue streams, that statement is so breathtakingly #classist .

    And the person who said that probably doesn't have a single fucking clue.
