In this aritcle, Dr. Spier explores the disconnect between the affluent 'laptop class' and the realities of manual labor. Spier contrasts her experiences treating blue-collar workers in rural areas with her interactions in an affluent leftist environment dominated by the laptop class. She highlights that while the laptop class enjoys the privilege of remote work and abstract discussions, they often fail to empathize with the hardships faced by manual laborers who endure physically demanding and often hazardous conditions.
Spier delves into her conversations with laptop class individuals who display a lack of understanding for the challenges faced by blue-collar workers. She critiques the laptop class' perception that these workers choose their professions out of interest, overlooking the necessity of manual labor for many. The article emphasizes that acknowledging the reality of manual labor's necessity clashes with the laptop class' victimhood narrative, challenging their beliefs about their preferred policies benefiting the underprivileged. She concludes that recognizing the true nature of manual labor would force the laptop class to confront their privilege and reevaluate their perspective on social issues.
