One of the big lies that the elites tell themselves is that anyone and everyone of merit with be lifted to their rightful station in society. They need this illusion because otherwise, they’ll have to face the fact that their success is just based on birth circumstances. They latched on the the few working class slobs that somehow navigate up the rungs of society.
But what exactly did Brian Thompson achieve with his success? Did he funnel his excess wealth back to the community he came from? No, he just accumulated wealth like all the rest.
Also, pretty sure he was cheating on his wife and doing insider trading, which checks out with the elites.
If we really have a society where everyone is lifted to their rightful station… Then someone really needs to explain to me why anyone is homeless? Why any child goes hungry? Your average trailer park and 50 bucks in Food Stamps is still well below what the worst of us deserves.
It’s their prosperity gospel. They think that being poor is a sign that you’ve lived a sinful, wrongful life and their wealth is a sign that they’ve lived a righteous life. Why do you think whenever some poor person(or immigrate) commits a heinous crime, mainsteam media puts them on blast, but when a CEO does something that can be calculated to cause may times more harm, it’s ignore or even praised?
What’s worse? A single rape committed by a vagrant or a health insurance company denying 100 rape kits? What’s going to get more coverage on the nightly news? I’m sure those news anchors believe that they’re where they are purely though their individual merit.
That is the saddest fucking thing I have ever heard. I always thought it was like part of filling out a police report or something and the local government paid for it. I love my country but God damn, I fucking hate my country’s government.

If you ask the elites, it is because “Because you’re all lazy bas’!”.

Wait, what? You have to pay for your own rape kit? JFC
Yeah, I just found that out too.

Source two.
It looks like some states have reimbursement programs, but that still means the onus is on the victim initially to pay first and to know about the program.

This is another example of how America operates along with health insurance.
They created these systems that on their face appears “normal” but the moment you need them, they don’t work at all
