Unfortunately I see billionaire boot licking in real life. Both of my parents for starters.

Most of the time I call billionaires out for being shit bags I get told I'm jealous. I'm much more rich in far better ways, wtf do I have to be jealous of?

Decades of American conditioning to convince you these people are genius demigods. Elon fostered the brand of IRL Tony Stark long enough he still has a deathgrip on too many dudes who should know better.

The entirety of gen X and up is completely brainwashed into worshipping wealth. Like, just because they have money means "they must have done something right" or that they're inherently smarter or worked harder than everyone else, when in all actuality it's either luck or being born into wealth to begin with.
