    No, but at the same time, wealth doesn’t need to be made out by someone as being a matter of class, just a manifestation of what you’ve been able to give/receive in society.

      I know a guy earning six figures that considers himself working class because “I work”, we all know he’s comfortably middle upper.

      I don’t judge him based upon his wealth but that doesn’t mean class isn’t a thing.

      So would it be fair to say if someone was a higher status than you, there should be no ill will against them? only the select few who exploit those below them?

        Is it fair to hate slavers? Or is it only fair if they are actively enslaving people? /s

        At this point, it’s obvious you’re a bad faith actor here (and an incompetent one at that), but on the miniscule chance you aren’t:

        It is as impossible to be a good person, and be a slaver as it is to be a billionaire and a good person.

        Both of those require active exploitation of people. You’re just used to framing the exploitation in terms that don’t make the exploitation clear for billionaires.
