            The author first talked about McDonald and referred it as to make up for low wages and little compensation for average working class people. Working class people are often subjects and victims of routinization, and even worse sexism. Many black working class were struggled to live. There’s infrapolitics and developed political movements are rare. In the article Weapins of the Weak, the author suggest that infrapolitics happen everyday in “many forms of resistances”. These resistances slowly wash down some power owned by people. For instance Civil war in the United States is an example of this. Poor white people were the ones that fought for the rich ones. The author asserts there’s no authentic politics being practiced and people are often too “romantized” by the status quo.
