their failure to keep up with the bleeding edge of fashion

That "potato sack dress" dig is a really ugly classist slur. It refers to poor people during the Depression whose clothes wore out and had to make do with cloth from potato sacks. The potato companies caught onto it and started printing their sacks with colorful patterns that could be made passable.

Shitting on poor people for making do is a really low blow. But it's permitted under Wokism, which forbids abusing anyone but The Other.

Now I want a potato sack dress, lol. Wholeness is all about validating the power of the elite over the poor. Triggernometry had a good podcast on it a while back.

Yah whatever happened to 'punching down?'

I got the vibe that this family was conservative Christian from the modest dress. Wokism hates Christians with a passion

This link explains it nicely, if you don't understand why they punch down and feel 100% OK to do it. Please share it around when you're done!

I think it was flour sacks that were printed up in colourful patterns, the material they were made of was a lot more amenable to it. People were forced to wear all sorts of sacking material though, feed sacks, flour sacks and potato sacks were commonly used.

Your point stands though, shaming poor white people, discounting their suffering as justified comeuppance and minimising the extent of their suffering is extremely common amongst those on the far left - something George Orwell noticed and wrote about.
