It’s really helps the system when our capitalist overlords give us someone to look down on though. People who get sucked in by the propaganda will fight when some is trying to take that from them.

Image Transcription:

X/Twitter post by a redacted user with a profile picture of a man wearing a Santa Claus hat reading "I make $16hr packing boxes at the Amazon distribution center. I'll be damned if the niggas that's flipping burgers make as much money as me doing skilled labor."

A response by a redacted user with a red-haired woman as their profile picture reads "Bezos makes $150,000/minute and pays you $16/hr but you're mad at checks notes McDonald's fry cooks?"
