They are not a proletarian working class in any meaningful sense and we must fight back against the cultural perception of them as such. The farmer must be seen as villain, not resistance fighter; the farmer sides with the occupier when they invade, the farmer collaborates with the secret police, the farmer wants nothing more than to open up a concentration camp. These are the interpretations we must foster, because they paint a far more accurate picture of what farmers are actually like.
