Militant leftists are the epitome of fake. They claim to be and/or be concerned for the working class, yet when they come into contact with the working class the disdain for us is evident. Their look, their speech, their mannerisms, all betray their fear and loathing for those who keep their world running. Its not just that they're soft and can only hack it behind a counter, they're bourgeois posers playing at a hard life. Coming into direct contact with the working class rubs their nose in that reality.
