The middle class tends to act as a reactionary force, co-opting the proletariat’s struggle to serve its own petty bourgeois interests. What’s both ironic and unfortunate is that many self-described communists here mistake the middle class for the proletariat.
Now I almost never read SCPs so I maybe just reading the good ones. But the newer ones I've read are of much higher quality than the classics. The new ones are often genuinely interesting pieces of short/flash fiction, while the old ones are just "Spook guy who kills you!"
