The “fun” thing with the petty bourgeois as they relate to Trump is how classes relate to fascism. Fascism materially arises from a frustrated petty bourgeoisie aligning with the Bourgeoisie against the Proletariat along nationalis and xenophobic lines.
The Jan 6ers made the time. Not sure how many jobs they have.
A lot were retired, some police and other minor tyrants, and some were just full time white nationalist organizers.
Trump die-hards are largely petty bourgeois, ie small business owners. They can make their own time.
Petit* bourgeois, it’s French so you spelled it like it sounds.
It’s both, actually. I use Petty Bourgeoisie when speaking with non-Marxists sometimes, though it makes little difference.
The language that famously has three+ silent letters per word?
Had not heard this term before, so I learned something new today. Thank you. And yes, this explains a lot.
No problem!
