Many leftist have been those from high class families who had the education and means to make a difference. Guevara and Engels being two examples among many. FDR, though absolutely not anywhere close to a leftist, betrayed his own upper class and championed the new deal.

I am not defending wealth. I am a dyed in the red and black commie, but I do think we should recognize that sometimes it's actually those with enough material means to make a difference who do so.

BTW. Hasan's a internet personality who abuses his dog, so... This comment was more about people coming from wealthier families being able to do good things.
