Okay, then that’s probably wrong. His *use* of it is not clarifying, then. I left this episode feeling unsympathetic to the argument. It may just be personal experience. I straddle the lines being talked about in this episode. I grew up poor and a farm kid. But I also got a college education and then advanced into the ranks of the DC administrative career class. And then I bombed out of that for reasons I won’t discuss here and now I’m a working class guy again driving for UPS. This conversation just felt…navel-gazing and almost like two guys feeling guilty about their current place in life and publicly airing their feelings of internal guilt. A little like the people who voluntarily go to Robin D’Angelo “trainings.”
