OK, I just broke a FB rule that I imposed on myself.

[TNNurse]

I commented that I respect anyone who does not listen to the speech tonight.

Someone I do not know responded that perhaps I would "step-up to a better class of citizens one day". I usually do not respond to strangers like that. However, I did respond that I found it interesting that he used the word "class". I should have just ignored him. If he responds again I should but I may be tempted.

I may need y'all to talk me down later.

Class implies income and social status. It has nothing to do with knowledge, ethics or common decency.

1. The word "class" has multiple meanings.

One of them can be expressed by a synonym: "category." The use of "class" to identify income and status groups is just one of the meanings of that word.

Sorry.

2. I understand that, but social status and money are the most commonly used.

His class is apparently Trump supporters who have no "class" at all.

3. Facebook sucks

From reading your posts on DU, you're pretty classy, TNNurse.

Don't let an anonymous shmuck get you down.

By the way, I won't watch the Idiot tonight, either and I think I'm a pretty good citizen. I pay my taxes, I vote, I work in my community and I support Democratic candidates.

4. Of course.

Plus, you did not indicate a *group* of people; you said "anyone." That means individuals.

5. Apparently he made an "F" and failed in his class.
