It’s poverty larping. In my homecountry they have this show in which they make a rich family and a poor family switch lives for a week. The rich families, after this week, are soooooo understanding of the poor people all of a sudden. They don’t. They know it will be over in a week. They don’t know what it’s like to live in stress everyday because you don’t know if you will have enough money to feed your kids this month. They don’t know what it’s like to just pray nothing breaks in your house or car because you can’t afford it. They don’t know what it’s like to be hungry.

Being poor is an aesthetic to them. It’s sickening.

This has been going on for a while. Just look at Berlin - full of well-off petty bourgeois/labour aristocracy kids moving to the hip, somewhat run-down, “scene” parts of town, buying >100$ tshirts in exclusive boutiques, wearing golden signet-rings, living in unaffordable houses “among the poors”, wasting hundreds of bucks per month on blow, other drugs and raves, always carefully looking run-down and wasted to fit in with the aesthetic of the actual poor parts of the city and its population. It’s become a fashion statement to live as close as possible and look as close as possible to the most desperate parts of the population. Heck, if you manage to score some friends from the lower classes for clout even fucking better.

It’s the final commodification and abstraction of poverty and it’s fucking disgusting.

Dere-lick my balls Balenciaga. I’ve got some fucked up unwearable shoes for you right here.
