Social Class and Induced Hate Frames
The speaker highlights a distinction between the traditional working class, professional class, rump professionals, and fallen professionals. People who do not go to college, including workers and small employers, tend to adopt right-wing hate frames. Fallen professionals, despite not experiencing typical markers of success, are made to feel superior for not participating in hate politics, leading to a cycle of hating the non-college-educated individuals. This situation discourages structural thinking and promotes a blame game within different social classes.
