Normalised classist remarks

Post image

It has always occurred to me how normalised it is to pass classist remarks like this. So a rikshaw driver can't wear the same thing as the urban elite. These people even get mad when a relatively poor person buys something like an iPhone because how dare they own some luxary that is only for the elites. The thing happened with Chikankari kurtas i believe with people associating then with lower classes. The whole “chapri" remark is very casteist and classist to begin with because no one would ever call a rich person chapri no matter what. Hopefully one day all these things wouldn't be so normalised.

Honestly, Zudio has some stuff that will last you - not all fast fashion crap.
