The problem isn't poor liberal erasure. It's that poor conservatives are treated like a subhuman mob, an animated wad of racism with no intelligence and no valid reason to be angry at the government.

Yeah, but as a poor liberal (and not in a "my parents were rich and now I am slumming it by living off ramen while I go to college" way, but in a "my community college education was free because I was so poor" way, I have to say that although poor conservatives have valid reasons to be angry at the government, like "the army harvests our kids straight out of school and sends them off to fight and when (and if) they come back they make up a disproportionate rate of the homeless and mentally ill and the government doesn't do enough to reintegrate them back into civilian society and make sure they have jobs" so much of their anger is expressed in bizarro language that I have a hard time taking them seriously.

Some samples from coworkers: "Obama is a socialist and he cut my SSI" and "America has the best health care in the world and of course everyone should have health care but I don't see why I should have to pay for it" and "see, that's why I don't believe in abortion, you weighed two pounds and you lived, I'm voting for Trump because Hillary is pro-abortion," and "foreigners are so lazy, they should all go back where they came from."
