I will put my IQ against yours ANYDAY. As for "explaining' that word. 1. It isn't a word 2. I know the meaning of bourgeoisie very well. 3. Obviously you don't. 4. If you are trying to put someone down, you shouldn't use words you can't spell and don't know the meaning of. 5. Only ignorant fools try to make themselves seem important by putting others down especially using words to identify themselves that have negative connotations....LMAO
From Wikipedia:
In common usage the term has pejorative connotations suggesting either undeserved wealth, or lifestyles, tastes, and opinions that lack the sophistication of the rich or the authenticity of the intellectual or the poor. It is rare for people in the English speaking world to self-identify as members of the bourgeoisie, although many self-identify as middle class, which some would argue is technically bourgeoisie. In the United States, where social class affiliation lacks some of the structure and rules of many other nations, Bourgeoisie is sometimes used to refer to those seen as being upper class.
In a capitalist society the term often refers to the owning and ruling classes. The term is widely used in many non-English speaking countries as an approximate equivalent of middle class (found in the Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels), but in English speaking countries usage of the word as a term of art is associated with those with socialist or anti-capitalist political leanings.
WELCOME BACK BOB!! THE VILLAGE WAS MISSING IT'S FOOL!!!
