Bernie Sanders launched the next round of his “fighting oligarchy” tour Saturday in Los Angeles, where he and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York) drew thousands of people to a park across from City Hall as they advanced their effort to build a “working class movement.”
Love the message and I get that he’s trying to shift the popular view and this isn’t a bad place to do it
But Coachella isn’t exactly filled with your average “working class” folks. Tickets start at $600 per person.
I think it’s pretty important to get this message to people who bought $600 tickets too. Those people likely had to work to pay for those tickets and cannot survive without working. That meets my definition of working class just fine. We need to stop cutting ourselves into smaller and smaller pieces.
