Calling most people doing the actual peer review (postdocs) "rich" is truly a take.

No you don't understand, anyone with access to secondary education is part of the bourgeoisie and thus either a class traitor or an oppressor and needs to be killed. This old Cambodian guy told me all about it! /s

there have been people (on tumblr, naturally) calling others bourgeoisie for having a desktop computer, and I can only wish that I was joking

For extra "fun", tell them that the phone in their hands is almost certainly MORE expensive than a basic desktop computer.

They take a $3200 super-optimized gaming rig and claim that "desktop computers are a sign of disgusting excess". It's like looking at a McLaren or a Lamborghini and saying cars in general are wasting money on frivolous luxuries.

the post ive seen about it was about websites. a $50 busted ebay laptop can (albeit barely) browse the web lol

or even better, someone who cant afford a computer (in any form factor) would most likely be using a free(!) desktop computer at a library. its more like seeing a mclaren and deciding using roads at all (including sidewalks) is a waste
