I think of this as attitude as "Rich white trash"... The thing about being rich is that you can afford to isolate yourself for a long time, wrapped up in a community of similarly isolated people. Those attitudes grow and fester without being challenged by different opinions. That isolation creates ideologically-driven people who just don't see how hurtful thier ideas truly are.
- logfromblammo 9y agoThe worst part of it is that some people who do know better and should be able to give contrasting opinions are unable to do so because they are in some way dependent on the rich bubble-dweller. They could get fired, or the person would stop paying for their rent or medical bills. In the case of the personal anecdote, they had just finished replacing one $100k pedigreed lap dog--that had been run over--with another, when the d-bag refused to help his own nonagenarian mother with some of her bills, actually suggesting that she go on food stamps if she's having so much trouble. Rich trash indeed.
