    The underlying assumption of all this is that other people getting help somehow directly harms you Which is an assumption justified with bad economics but is ultimately something people believe at a toxic worldview level Just pissed at anyone getting "handouts" on principlehttps://twitter.com/jsmooth995/status/1328389930641395715 …

        I think there's also an element of "Why aren't you helping with something that benefits ME instead?" Generally, if they own a house, they wouldn't complain about mortgage relief, if they have kids, they're fine with child tax credits, if they have credit card bills, CC relief...

        They'd all be fine with tax credits

        Even if everything is some zero-sum game, then the people we should be mad at are *not* "people drowning in college debt".

        “Negative solidarity” is a term I’ve heard for this kind of thing (the U.K. is riddled with it)

        A lot of people think that just because they suffered, current and future generations should suffer. At its heart that argument is flawed. Policy decisions shouldn't be made based on jealousy.

        It's all from the Protestant "hard work builds character, receiving help makes you weak"

        ...which is pretty funny considering how many other nations we try to "help"

        yeah. at very best they're scared of losing out on their fraction of the slice of pie while we're in a pastry shop and bakery while the "masters" gorge on the rest of the pies
