Thanks you for explaining to me (/r/ELI5) what a pleb is. I had to use ChatGPT to further get more info on the history of a pleb. For those who want an in-depth history, well, here you go:

"In ancient Rome, a pleb was a member of the common people, who were not part of the aristocracy. They were often poor and had limited political and social rights. The conflict between plebs and patricians, the wealthy upper class, was a significant factor in the development of the Roman Republic.

In 494 BCE, the plebs staged a mass walkout or "secession" from the city and demanded more rights. This led to the creation of a new office called the Tribune of the Plebs, which allowed plebeians to have their grievances addressed and to propose laws.

Over time, plebs gained more rights and representation in government. In 287 BCE, the plebs gained the right to pass laws without the approval of the patricians, and by the end of the Republic, plebeians could hold high offices and even become consuls.

Despite their increasing political power, plebs were still discriminated against and faced economic and social challenges. The term "plebeian" has come to mean someone who is common or unrefined, but in ancient Rome, plebs were an important part of the social and political landscape."
