There is no such thing as bourgeouise, OP. There are Americans, American interests, and unamerican activities; participation in institutional structures is a fundamental American institution. What is the highest level of education you've completed, OP?

Yeah, dude needs to experience some institutional logic first-hand before he continues to make grand pronouncements. Institutions are what seperates civilization from anarchy: they are the method through which one obtains plausible deniability when seeking to gently caress someone else over, and for that, they're really quite great. OP needs to read some texts from Fukuyama and Dr. Kissinger so that OP can have a well-rounded perspective on institutional logic. ps zizek is poo poo

You haven't answered one question of mine, which leads me to believe that you're a college freshman out to strike it in the world for the first time.

glowing-fish posted:So say I meet...a 45 year old lawyer, pretty liberal, works for a timber company, came from a middle-class family, went to a mid-tier private university...and who, while being pretty liberal, kind of uses that background as a metric of what he expects other people's experiences to be? What is the word to describe the expectations and background someone like that would have? Actually, it starts with an "A" That background is "American".
