AYRT--I was thinking more along the lines of people who excuse not doing anything to help the poor, praise poverty in the abstract as a source of strength and resilience, but either never experienced poverty themselves and are unwilling to do so (minimalism of the "20 identical cashmere tops in shades of cream" or "$100k capsule wardrobe" type is the closest they get) or say they made it out of poverty and anyone who didn't is lazy.

Privately thinking surviving poverty, or abuse, or systemic racism made you personally stronger is fine, because you do what you have to to survive and function. Writing off attempts to end poverty and abuse and systemic racism as naive and besides I survived it, why can't they, is shitty.

I see a lot of that in politics, sure, but in fiction?
