  • The classic model of petty bourgeoisie being the progenitor of fascism works well in America.

    Petty bourgeoisie make up a large portion of the Republican base. Petty bgz themselves are the direct inheritors of the settler ideology and elevated position in society (thus it also includes many poor whites already “demoted” in social status). They feel the contradictions intensify from both sides, workers asking for more, and big bgz taking over. This puts them in a precarious position of becoming workers, so the petty bgz naturally act according to their (privileged) interests and become very reactionary.

    An analysis of Trump’s attempted coup on Jan 6th reveals the petty bourgeois make up of his supporters. He is a useful tool of the big bourgeoisie to resolve this contradiction.

    So I think before attempting to analyze big bourgeois intraclass conflict, it’s very important to consider the basic big bgz-petty bgz situation.




  • Oh cool, I’m looking at getting a legion too. Thinking of moving soon and it will come in handy. If you get one, please share your thoughts about it.

    And yeah if you get a non-gaming laptop just look out for whether or not the build is limiting the amount of power the GPU can use and if it has a mux switch. I’m not sure on all the details of those things but with gaming laptops you don’t have to worry about that stuff, whereas on studio /creator laptops you do before purchasing if your intent is to play games.
