Isn't this a caricature too? In what way are socialist beliefs, which generally push for more unions and worker power, "viciously classist"? "Eat the rich" is a "blue" meme, not a "red" one.

I have never heard "eat the rich" or any of the associated rhetoric from anybody lower class. It's classic struggling upper class making 100k in a super HCOL and living paycheck to paycheck with student loans. Core blue demographic. There's a reason why Democrats want to bail out student loans borrowers, but not actual poor people in debt.
