Theory is middle-class, experience is working-class


 You must stick as closely as you can to the facts and avoid fancy theories
For Theory is middle-class, Experience working-class  
this may sound like impressive candour is among other things but is it the the reverse side of a dubious epistemology.
For this is a  notion of language that involves empiricist assumptions, in its naive belief that one first has a concept and then fits a word to it. Every paid-up (now sadly discredited en masse) Postmodernist knows how to laugh this doctrine to scorn and on PM  the assiduous practice of textual deconstruction can ‘do radical political work’..
