If we could get rich whites to care about poor whites, the fight is just about over

The opiod addictions, the dying of preventable and treatable diseases, etc

The homelessness of entire families because of one layoff or illness

@Deleted User I've been watching a lot of Downton Abbey, which begins just before WWII and goes through the 20s+, and it's fascinating and frustrating to see what changed for better and worse. I wouldn't bring back all of it (especially old approaches to pregnancy & birth), and clearly Brits are very different in character compared to us, but a lot of the old ways we never should have ditched.

I've seen a few episodes.

Some guy was on TDS saying he blames rich whites more than he blames Jews for our current situation. Can't say I completely disagree.

I've made promos for PBS for Downton Abbey, never actually watched the show though.

I'm in season 4, no spoilers plz

@missliterallywho What class of people are the main characters in that show?

All of them, really

It's a large cast and details the lives of all the people in the house

@John O - It's about an Earl's family and his servants, so all classes show up

Who do you self insert as?

*don't say the flapper don't say the flapper*

The flapper.

lol

nice

I can empathize with a variety of characters. My mom thinks I'm a lot like Mary, the "cold" one lol

Oh, you were talking to Mrs. Logan, my bad....

Oh, so the upper class

Is there a sassy maid? I want to be *her*

no reason..

We don't have a comparable class system by any means, realistically I'd be between the aristocrats and the servants

i saw a scene with some dude racing a car...I wanna be him.

*Oi! Getcha own damn tea*

@Flint The sassy maids always get fired

You mean freed from my bourgeoi masters to go have my own series?

The burgeoning middle class shows up here and there but none of the main characters are in it

*Oi, you got a license for that!* the series

Lol one sassy maid ended up with a bastard child and worked as a prostitute. Bad behavior used to have real consequences

So, it'll be an HBO show?

Not in that century lol

She was majorly shunned

Actually, there really is a show like that, set in the 70's disco ere

Had Maggie Gylenhal and James Franco...

Gross

Don't remember what it was called

She was a prostitute in NYC and had a daughter

The only HBO series I liked was The Young Pope. Although it had a lot of sexual themes which I didn't like that much

He was the brother of some guy who owed money. I only saw about 20 mins of it

The Wire is a good HBO series. It’s about the drug scene in Baltimore during the 90’s. It’s fiction tho
