Opinions about the ‘eat the rich’ crowd?

lazy people with 0 work ethic who spent their entire lives making dumb decisions, ending up with an unfulfilling min wage job in their late 20s, still insisting on blaming everyone else for their lack of drive to improve. 

Also most of them are upper class-rich themselves which makes it even more baffling.

So when someone is poor and speaks out against wealth inequality you call them lazy. And when someone is fairly wealthy and speaks out against it you call them out for not knowing what it’s like to be poor.

You people are idiots

Speaking out against wealth inequality does NOT equal “eat the rich”

Eat the rich is a very specific type of extremist who is less focused on helping the actual poor and more focused on using their hipster liberal arts college professor’s teachings on how “communism is totes good” to make people angry at anyone middle class or higher just for existing.

Poor people need help, but that help needs to be ACTUAL help, bringing down rich people isn’t going to help poor people.
