The dem candidate in my state in 2020 supported Donald Trump, said that the current Republican senator didn't work with Trump enough. I got accused of "purity testing" because I said that was a good enough reason to not vote for a Democrat lmao.

Deeply unserious people.

Spongebob Squarepants, as a program, is vignette of American life in the 1990s.

That takes place under the sea.

Mr. Krabs, owning the Krusty Krab, represents a sneering, self-aware version the bourgeoisie from the bourgeois perspective. He is motivated soley by money, and lives in an immense house that reflects his status.

Spongebob represents an idealized version of the proletariat from the bourgeois perspective. He is tireless, and works for very little money, but still maintains a decent standard of living despite this, maintaining several hobbies, furthering his education, and even owning a home; this is to trick the audience into thinking homeownership is possible.

Patrick represents the lumpenproletariat from the bourgeois perspective. He's portrayed as foolish, and only ever engages in rest and recreational activities, two things that the bourgeois abhor for working people to do. Because of this, his housing needs are not adequately met; he literally lives under a rock.

Plankton represents the evil scientist class; it goes without saying his significance to the sociopolitical themes of the show.

I can't wait to see the reaction even when the Chinese space program puts someone on the moon for the first time in 50 years, while the US is just giving blank checks to Elon Musk, Boeing, and Lockheed.
