Re: Classism in fandom

[nyxelestia]

Yes and no. As many other people have mentioned, classism in America is closely tied to racism, and probably the more important difference is acceptability of classism more than anything else, as well as how it's judged.

In Britain, you'll get someone saying that someone is a "chav" or that their accent obviously makes them lower-class, and thus a whole host of other negative stereotypes just because they are poor. Conversely, in America, people will put up a few more 'layers' before hitting that point, so we won't say the mythical Welfare Queen is a bad person for being poor, but we will blame them for their poverty and load on a bunch of racism and then call them a bad person for needing government help, aka being poor enough to need government help.

So there is ample amounts of classism in both fandoms - it's just isolated as its own issue in Britain and more tangled up in other issues (namely race) in America.
