Your taste isn't politics
While a couple of the people interviewed for the story were very comfortable with their cycling class linking
back to the Trump administration , the general response was shock and dismay. “I think they need to get on top of this big time,” one customer explained. “I’ve already paid for a big package of classes, but I’m waiting to see what they do next before I pay for more.” The piece was funny in the way that stories like this often are, since it exposed the contradictions of extreme wealth by simply showing extreme wealth up close. Nothing about, but the revelation still felt like a shock to the system for people who consider themselves liberal but were inadvertently power-cycling to enrich a billionaire Trump supporter.
But it was also, like so much of the reporting that has followed Ross’s planned fundraiser for the president, a meta-story about the ways in which the luxury monoculture currently favored by a certain kind of person—modestly or extravagantly affluent, often coastal, often liberal, almost always white—actually displays a political prerogative.
