OP

[(Anonymous)]

I came from poverty and a lower social class and it was hard to resist going completely bitter about it. I remember having to scrimp, and scrape and desperately hoard every penny - it grows an ugly anger in you.

I know I'm projecting, but I always sensed some of that was going on with Facilier.

Like, given the general background of racism and the impact THAT has on his poverty, I can't say I blame him for deciding to fuck up some lazy royal and his asshole servant.

DA - but I understand that. I was recently talking with a friend that I grew up with about this a bit. We both grew up in a very poor rural area but have had very different paths. She 'got lucky' when she was 20 and managed to get a front desk job at a company that then launched her into working at a college and then she managed to get a degree while working at the college and now her career has really taken off. I am super happy for her success, but at the same time I've worked just as hard all my life but have never had that type of 'luck' and am still living basically paycheck to paycheck with no degree. She just closed on buying her third house (not owning all at once, just moving) and I'm stuck in renting hell. So she was talking about how she couldn't understand why people think a certain way and I was like, no I get it. I don't agree with them but I can easily see the path where I could let the bitterness and anger and frustration drown me.

Fair.

I totally get it. When you watch from a very young age how the world works and how some people are born into wealth and have every need and want taken care of, it's really hard not to get angry and bitter that you have to struggle so hard to just keep your head above water. When there are metaphorically people next to you chilling out on yachts or lying on the beach at a luxury resort. Especially as a child when you have so little control over your life.

I can definitely see that angle.
