Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Upper middle class? I think most if not 90% of billionaires are born in firmly upper class?
"Upper middle class" is just an abstraction from actual class dynamics anyways. It only exists as a believable goal for the working class to achieve and believe they've succeeded, even if they remain workers or at most petite bourgeoisie.
Fundamentally, there is no tying factor bringing this "upper middle class" together, no aligning of mutual interests, outside of tax brackets. As such, it isn't a real class, as the relation to the mode of production is wildly diverse from within this category.
