I think its easy to point fingers, but I myself is guilty of "mocking poor people". One memory that stuck in my mind was during college during office hours. A classmate was struggling to configure her assignment on her 5 year old PC, nobody really wanted to help her because her computer was so old and so irrelevant. Casually, I joked (with classmates around us)
"You should burn your laptop and get a mac." Some laughed, but she didn't.
"Why don't you buy me one"
I was a little offended, her remark and body language felt a little hostile. We never talked again.
This memory stuck with me and I wish I could apologize to her. My seemingly harmless remark poked fun at her economic handicap for my amusement.
