Commentators seem unable to grasp that your typical middle class American family lives a life which, to the sufferer, ironically resembles the stresses of poverty.
Income just barely meets expenses, very little leisure, both parents working, harried and insecure. https://t.co/vNJR38PKkd

Kevin Drum, Yglesias, Krugman, et al. are all involved in a propaganda operation to convince people their precarity and the fragility of modern life is actually ok. It’s a way of tamping down dissent and attempting to preserve predatory capitalism.
More people are calling them out now but it won’t be enough. The psyop is working and will keep on working.
