    i mostly agree, but it’s not that easy to “have more class consciousness” when you’re a non-citizen though, as you’re way more vulnerable and even posting the wrong stuff online might get your visa denied

      I meant less to do with any potential revolutionary zeal and more to do with pipeline-to-capital-defence as they become potential labour aristocrats or consider themselves temporary non-bourgoisie.

      Addendum: (Exemplified, for example, when they often amp up their colourism/castism/anti-immigrant/anti-black racist perspectives if they become successful American Citizens. However, on these fourms we often do come from glass houses.)
