This is a definite phenomena. It is also characterized by comments like “the economy is not a zero-sum game”, “no one wants to work those jobs; we can design everything here and do the menial work in low cost countries”, “learn to code”, “all you have to do is buy this self-help book and …”, “the world is going to end if these people don’t stop using internal combustible engines”, “low interest rates are for the good of the common man so they can afford to go into debt and buy a house at an inflated price”, “allowing student debt to be cancelled (in or out of bankruptcy) is unfair to the working class”, the classic “low taxes help businesses prosper and hire more workers”, or the latest one “we can’t let depositors with 250k+ lose their money because they won’t meet their payroll for the little people”.
