ok so a lot of us nerds finally realized that "blonde popular kids" are often, contrary to media depictions, completely fine and we were unnecessarily hostile to them
i'm increasingly feeling this way about rich people
media consistently depicts them as being really MEAN but actually not being crushed under a scarcity mindset and enjoying how u spend ur time and being surrounded by other relaxed ppl who enjoy how they spend their time
doesnt magically make people more hostile
i think some of it is that rich ppl are not super visible usually
there are like... ppl really invested in LOOKING rich and those people, i expect, are a big part of why rich ppl have such a bad rap
but this is very much not the same thing
tangential but ppl seem to expect movie stars to be snobbish and maybe assholish but they're usually very nice
the ones who arent get reputations for it, and the ones who are awful, like, ppl stop wanting to work with
i think ego stuff really boils down to scarcity mindset. if u arent worried abt losing things what is there to be so protective of
ppl will get themselves into debt buying new cars for their teenagers and a house that's too big so that they'll *look* rich to other ppl
i expect these ppl to be the assholes
these ppl are
emphatically
not actually rich
