do you think billionaires roleplay as the working class like French aristocrats would roleplay peasants? (lemmy.ml)

French aristocrats used to make model towns that romanticized rural life and to some extent I have seen wealthy people do this through "homesteading" but I am curious if the bourgeoisie has like, idk, fake mcdonalds? Obviously not all of them but I feel like there have to be some that are into this or something like it.

Iirc Mike Rowe is pretty pro-worker in a meaningful-ish way but yes, like Mike Rowe.

No, he’s pro-work, but he is a free market libertarian type person who supports capitalism which makes him anti-worker whatever else he might say.

Mike Rowe is a libertarian piece of shit that deserves to be fed to pigs.
