if they see that someone's getting something they're not getting: "that's not faaaaaaiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrr"
if they get something other people aren't getting: "i earned it!!!"
I agree but that's not limited to conservatism at all. Many liberals feel the same way in third person, outraged that anyone is wealthy if anyone else isn't.
Literally just want them to pay taxes but okay.
A small amount of people are upset some people make a lot of money. A larger amount of people are upset others make 10,000x more than that.
sure. link us some examples of this
My in-laws, but I'm afraid they don't make tiktok videos or memes, sorry.
I am just outraged that some people are starving because they can't afford food while other people have so much money that they don't even know how they could spend it all.
I agree that's a bad thing, but people's standard for too much money is always more than their own wealth. Shouldn't all of us who consistently have a roof over our heads and aren't hungry feel like part of the problem too? It seems to me that anyone enjoying a DoorDash meal, when the delivery charge and tip could feed a whole family somewhere, should feel at least some guilt and not just point the finger.
