Why is it that blue-collar workers tend to reject socialism and become far more “manly” than socialist soybois?

Well, let’s remember that socialism is basically summed up with the quote, “From each according to their ability, to each according to their need.” In theory, this would mean blue-collar workers would get some of the wages from the Wall Street types to make millions doing work that doesn’t actually produce something.

In reality, though, those blue-collar workers aren’t stupid. They know that they’re making pretty good money, especially in relation to how soon they could enter the workforce after undergoing their training. They also recognize that while they aren’t making as much as some fat cat on Wall Street, they’re making a whole lot more than the welfare queen who refuses to work.

As a result, socialism would take money out of their pockets—money they worked insanely hard to earn—and then give it to people who have done almost nothing.
