How can everything in one tweet be so wrong.

Apart from the obvious, she treats the Weasley’s like being poor is a fun sentimental thing. She does that insufferable lib class tourist thing of acting like being poor is actually more “real” than having wealth and ignores the hardships alongside it, apart from “Ron has some stuff from his brothers”

“ There’s no glory in greed and want/but there’s none in poverty either.”

Found it.

Well, I guess Oliver Twist was just a novel about how workhouses and the Poor Laws were the 19th century version of sigma quadrillionaire grindset, and The Chimney Sweeper were just poems about how dying of black lung at four years old was hella rad.

the libs are telling on themselves that they’ve truly never read another book

it’s not even hard to reach for something obvious like Dickens or Hugo

writing about class struggles is when you acknowledge that poor people exist

Accurately depicting a class-based society with vast wealth disparity is when literally everybody gets to go to wizard Eton/Oxbridge.

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.
