One time my mom was buying a car & the salesman asked if she wanted the extended warranty. She said no & he was like “well I’ll just throw it in anyway.” After she left she found out he charged her for it & he was like “that’s what throw it in means, you throw it into the bill.”
I do think the online left has something of a noble savage view of the working class, which is why they got tricked by Platner and Fetterman. Vassar grads going “these are some salt-of-the-earth fellas” when the vibes were off from the jump, they assume a baseline grotesquerie.
