how about we put our class on the top instead of trying to boot lick our way up?

No thanks, the lower class will always be full of people without etiquette, manners or ability to think. I don't want to keep having to associate with lower class scum, I want to associate with other sophisticated people.

if it were easy there would be no prize in doing it but history has proven it is possible, the current ruling class was once relegated to our position and fought their way up against the feudal order

>talking about lower class scum
I can smell your poorfag ass from over here, you will never be able to become one of them, all you are a self hating member of "the lower class"
the bourgeoisie was once considered crude and unsophisticated by the aristocrats but history has left them in the dust and implemented the bourgeois as the peak of culture and power
soon the time of proletarian will come

I'm not aspiring to have it, I already have. I come from a rather modest family, we own land, have a family company etc but we don't have any good social network, all the people "we" know are regular lower class people. We are "better" off than them socially, intellectually and economically etc, we are just not in the same league when it comes to interests, opinions, talking points or anything which makes me uncomfortable and I feel like I don't fit in. I just want to associate with people who are more similar to me.

I find it amusing that, by all accounts, even the proletariat of the 19th century was more thoughtful, more rational, more socially conscious, and much more spiritually fulfilled than most middle class wastrels of today.
Your problem is one shared by many, and is not at all relegated to the lower classes. It seems that there are few among our fellow creatures who have a genuine desire to raise themselves above their baser natures, and fewer still who have the willpower to follow through.
You may be disappointed to find that even among the upper orders of society there are many who fit your description. This being despite the trappings of wealth and its edifying qualities. Although I will admit that at least they have the manners and good sense to mask their baseness in polite company.
