Classism is a form of discrimination or prejudice based on social class, typically involving beliefs or attitudes that one social class is superior to another. It is the systematic oppression and marginalization of individuals based on their socioeconomic status, often leading to unequal opportunities, resources, and treatment based on one's perceived class. Classism can manifest in various ways, such as unequal access to education, employment, healthcare, housing, and other social services. It perpetuates social inequality and reinforces existing power dynamics within society.
