    I’m just here to upvote the phrase ‘trailer-park visigoths’. Carry on.

      I like it, it has some metaphorical levels, but I’m torn because Rome definitely had it coming.

      Hell, did you know the Visigoths allowed women to inherit property and noble titles? They were the woke mob destroying the literal patriarchy by 410 AD standards.
