    You mean, the country that still has Lords, Ladies, Barons, Dukes, Dutchesses and a Royal Family are… financially classist ???

      I don’t think that that is related really. They are effectively just rich people who pass on generational wealth.

      It’s probably more to do with more than a decade of conservative government.

      I don’t think that anyone would argue that the US isn’t financially classist.

          I’m not saying that they don’t have influence but the titles are pretty meaningless compared to the generational wealth.

          Again, the US has the same situation and they don’t have titles.

        You don’t think 1000 years enforced class system has nothing to with anything?

        how naive is u?

        Entire English speaking world class systems are modeled on it. The hate of the poor is very specific to English speaking countries also. Continental Europe generally viewed poverty as unfortunate consequence of “progress”. English speaking world it is a moral failing of the slave along with with his removed mother and drunk father.

        These sentiments never changed and are currently being reflected with “conservative” policies across the globe. Their MO is extraction of value from the poors labour, always has been.

        But hey keep your pedo royal family and elites… they dindu nuffin ;)
