It comments on the financial impact of these weddings, noting their appeal to the liberal affluent social class, especially in wealthy suburbs like Wellesley, Greenwich, and McLean, where voting patterns favor Democrats.The author suggests that these wealthy communities often despise the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/past-the-point-of-no-return-iowa-dems-feel-hopes-fading\/\" title=\"&#039;Past the Point of No Return&#039;?

The piece criticizes the extravagance and social ambition behind such weddings, implying they exemplify class envy and societal disconnect. It concludes with a personal aversion to the liberal elite\u2019s lifestyle and a call for awareness of their political and social motives.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s one to tickle your schadenfreude funny bone: It has been reported that at least 34 weddings were scheduled on the island of Nantucket, Massachusetts, when the severe nor\u2019easter storm hit this past weekend.<\/p>\n<p>With respect to the kind of money that was affected, some of it was old, some of it was new, and all of it was liberal.<\/p>\n<p>Excuse me for taking a little pleasure at the misfortune of the liberal smart set and those who perpetuate across generations the scourge known as destination weddings.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in the voting patterns of families throwing fancy weddings on Nantucket, look to the results from the toniest suburbs in the Acela Corridor. In 2024, Kamala Harris won Wellesley, Massachusetts, 73-22; Greenwich, Connecticut, 57-41; Englewood, New Jersey, 76-22; Villanova, Pennsylvania, 68-31; and McLean, Virginia, 57-41.<\/p>\n<p>The phenomenon of keeping up with the liberal Joneses is not unique to the East Coast. For example, Edina, Minnesota, with a population of perhaps 2 percent Somalis supported by 98 percent suicidally empathetic natives, went 68-29 for Harris.<\/p>\n<p>These totals actually are overweighted toward Republicans, via <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >hidebound senior citizen voters<\/a>, and do not incorporate the Democrat leanings of the young wedding-bound spawn of these communities, who have only recently been hatched from the academy and are temporarily enjoying their soulless affluence in urban playgrounds.<\/p>\n<p>The short of it is that these are the people who wish to visit mass migration on all of us because their gardener is so nice and \u2014 at least outwardly \u2014 grateful for their table scraps.<\/p>\n<p>They believe globalism is verdant and engendering. They despise the white working class above all groups of people because, very often, they are not so removed from it themselves. The dream of a Nantucket destination wedding is not easily relinquished by such folks.<\/p>\n<p>Hence, there were reports of hosts desperately commandeering private aircraft to fly guests onto the island after regular ferry and air service was cancelled and receptions being moved to improvised indoor venues.<\/p>\n<p>If I had not stopped reading The New York Times, and its infamous \u201cWomen\u2019s Sports Page\u201d that covers weddings, over 20 years ago, I might have more details on the drama. I am sure that 80 percent of those invited to destination weddings painfully cringe upon opening the invitation and seeing the location.<\/p>\n<p>That classy raised cursive font could just as well read, \u201cThree grand in airfare, rental car, hotel, and incidentals for two is a small price to pay so that a socially ambitious couple can \u2018 this beautiful place with all of our best friends.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There was a time when I actually attended these events fairly regularly, but when I finally realized that I would never find myself in a conversation at one about the warm heart, wit, and jurisprudence of Antonin Scalia, I finally mustered the gumption to send my regrets and the toaster oven.<\/p>\n<p>I am not alone in my aversion to the liberal smart set and their destination weddings. I got over 500 \u201clikes\u201d when I replied to a post on X about the Nantucket wedding crisis with, \u201cIt couldn\u2019t happen to a nicer social class.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There were only a few dissents criticizing my \u201cclass envy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Class envy? Hardly. Class traitor? I am willing to try that one on for size.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><i><b>The views expressed in this opinion article are those of their author and are not necessarily either d or endorsed by the owners of this website.
