Anons when you go out to eat at a restaurant do you tuck your napkin in your shirt like a true fine dining enjoyer, or are you too self conscious? I used to be too self conscious but then I realized I am going to die some day so nothing matters.

Tucking into the shirt will put you as nouveau riche. Place the napkin in your lap as you eat you phillistine. Keep at it though. You may still prove a true gentleman yet.

Fellow Shurbleghs is it true that before consuming a meal you should first swallow at least ten napkins so that they protect the lining of your intestines, or does that put you in league with the likes of the Arqwarq Confederation? I used to be too self conscious about it but I realized I'm going to live for eternity and will exist for all days so it doesn't really matter.

Says who? The commies?
People who earned their wealth are just management class workers with more money. If we use "wealthy" as a descriptor for a specific type of person, then being born into it is essential to cultivate both the social norms and the contempt for the working class.

It's a fact of life but it doesn't mean I'd treat the people who benefit from it as more useful or intelligent than your average four year old.
>Everyone under an arbitrary income level is equally responsible for contributing to society and everyone above that has done nothing
It's not about income, it's about work vs being born into money. One person starts a business that workers run efficiently enough to make it a massive success, the person's decision-making is admirable. His kids and theirs and so on not contributing to society in any way isn't

True nobles contribute more to society. People who exploit some gimmick to get rich quick don't have any sense of reasponsibility for others. They weren't raised to understand their responsibilities. They just figure they got what's theirs and that's all that matters.

There's no such thing as a "true noble". One of the main reasons for disparities in wealth and opportunity were that non-land owners weren't even allowed to be educated or vote, the latter of which also made it so that you had rich people voting for policies that favoured other rich people. It's always been about getting theirs. True wealth is a matter of grit and character, not being born with a silver spoon.

means nothing but rich people mingling with other rich people who got rich by their families exploiting the poor centuries ago. they do nothing for anyone else, they just fuss over how to best show the wealth they were born into while people with actual skills cook for them and keep their house.
