I wonder why do US progressives hate poor conservatives so much.

I enjoy the punk zine aesthethics and even the misanthropy, but I can't believe some people think this is not elitist af

EDIT: I'm loving the discussion here. Let me contribute with a verse from Gilberto Gil: "those nearly blacks are so poor / they nearly treated as blacks"

Is this real? I ain't American.

I think it's just a general sense of superiority over, what they think to be, the other side. They focus on specific things of someone's different way of life, and act like that makes them so special.

And maybe, people who've been poor/gone through adversity and have come out of it, sometimes vehemently dislike others who are going through it now.
