those at the bottom of the money and earnings ladder. This ranges from homeless people to those in decently paid jobs who will attempt to get thier children into the middle classes. Lower classes always have trouble making ends meet.

Get the lower classmug. What your school does for quarantine school. It makes you addicted to your phone and computer. It also drives your teachers crazy because no one unmutes. Also, you don't learn half the stuff you're supposed to. Also, it makes everyone develop intense social anxiety. So basically, your average school thing.
Kid 1: hey, I think I'm in your spanish class
Kid 2: yeah, same period too? Cool, see you in zoom class!
Kid 1: omfg I don't want to unmute what if people think my voice sounds weird??
Kid 2: aaaaaaaaaa mee toooooo! Zoom classes suckkkkkkkk
Both: just text the entire rest of the class and don't say anything (or learn anything

Get the Zoom classesmug. A person who thinks they can tell someone with a working class occupation (tradesperson/retail staff/food prep or service etc) how to do their job because 'how difficult can it be really'.
The typical class 'splainer has a degree level education or higher and seems to think their 2:2 in music tech qualifies them to explain plumbing to a plumber. You might overhear a class 'splainer lecture a 19 year old part time sales assistant on stock rotation before asking 'what kind of opperation are you running here', insisting that running out of a particular item is 'ridiculous' and demanding 100% discount for the inconvenience.
Some class 'splainers don't have much educational attainment but instead climbed the ranks of whatever leeching corportation was stupid enough to raise them to the dizzying hights of middle management after taking a night course in whatever defunct version of MS Office they're still running. Such individuals will try to compensate for feeling like an outsider at work by lording it over service staff often by insisting they 'don't see why you can't just {insert unreasonable demand}' and snorting 'it's hardly difficult'. These people might feel the need to affect an upper class British accent.
Any push back is met with some variation of who do you think you are / who do you think you're talking to. Intersects with mansplainer though sometimes women do it too.

Some condescending toff won't shut up about the EU regulations on pints, he keeps saying everythings ridiculous and demanding the finest wines.
He's a Class 'splainer, tell him he's barred!

Get the Class 'splainermug. When class is so boring you zone out and don't remember anything the prof said or anything you did for the entire 1 hr 15min.
Mina: "Omg class was sooo boring today."
Leena: "I know, I zoned out and then I looked down and I had notes and I didn't remember taking them."
Mina: "Class blackout, nbd."

Get the Class Blackoutmug. A living standard some 75% of Americans think they’re at, but it’s a relevant term. In terms of income, some are college educated people with professional white-collar jobs that are single that live in simple one bedroom apartments, but many tradesman that barely finished high school that have families live in a comfortable home in the suburbs, but can’t afford much more than a mortgage and enough food to eat. And you have union tradesmen making more money than accountants and engineers, but most of them don’t live at the same level because of their mentality. In reality, the middle class are college-educated, work white-collar occupations above a secretary or bank clerk, but not physicians or attorney’s, live in a tract home in the suburbs, two cars usually at least one an SUV or Minivan, have a pedigree dog, favorite restaurants are Starbucks, Red Robin, or Chili’s, their kids are highly monitored and in at least one extracuricular activity, their church is usually anything but Roman Catholic, Hardshell Baptist, or Pentecostal, and vacations at least once a year, usually places like Disney World. Many living in mountain climates enjoy skiing or snowboarding in their leisure time and coastal climates the beach.
They are a middle class family. He’s a project manager and his wife a school teacher. Their kids all get good grades and enrolled in soccer. Their home is a two story 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath with a playroom and over 3,000 square feet.

Get the Middle Classmug. Bajan slang for freeness. Eg. My cousin got a job at the cinema, we got hobby class. Free entrance, free food & drinks. I'm going next week again.
