Re: Classism in fandom

I don't know what bitterness you're talking about. In fact, I side-eye the fuck out of people who are bitter, especially when they're resenting people who never personally wronged them. Why should I feel bitter about the fact that rich people exist? They didn't steal my money, and I hope to get richer one day so it'd be pretty damn hypocritical of me to be bitter about them.

The only people I feel bitter towards are the rich people who purposely screw and extort poor people with no other options in order to increase their bottom line, and the governments that facilitate it. I don't even feel bitter about the people who re-elect them, because they're understandably duped the way everyone without a degree in political science and the time to scrutinize the political landscape every day is duped.

Sorry, I'm nayrt. That was very bitter. And as other commenters have shown, the ayrt's rant totally falls apart upon scrutiny.

I get bitter from the opposite direction. When I was bullied in school, one of the rich girls was the only one who stood up for me.* After I left that school, everyone started bullying her instead. (And this was around the same time her father died, so she wasn't in stable condition as it was.) Her money got her a nice therapist, but didn't really solve her underlying problems--she struggled through them just like anyone else. I get frustrated on her behalf when people act like money makes it all better.

* I've been told she wasn't super-rich, but she lived in a really, really nice house and had a lot of really, really nice trinkets. The place always seemed too large for her, and it must have seemed even larger after her dad died.

Money doesn't solve all problems, but it helps a lot of them. Emotional, mental, human problems - those things that touch everyone just because they exist will happen no matter your wealth. Just about everything else takes money.

Rich people do experience the same human joys and sadness as everyone else, but they often don't have to have the extra, sometimes monumental, stress of having to worry about the cost of every other little thing in their life. Their day to day priorities are often so much different that people struggling with money have a hard time not being annoyed even if they're experiencing similar things.

Especially when you also have some of the very wealthy who also happen to be jerks saying things like "poor people should just stop being poor" and that getting out of poverty is as easy as "just hold down a job for a year".

Your lack of details is unconvincing. It sounds like you're talking more about what your idea of a rich person is than actual people.
