The goal posts have moved. Millionaires used to be considered part of the villainized rich group.

These days it’s not been out of reach for people to become millionaires themselves. Espcially in online spaces with a lot of tech sector workers. Many of them are millionaires. So the goal post had to move.

More broadly speaking we live in a time of great inequality. The people who’ve been doing well are doing very well. Combine that with generations of people having higher education and higher paying careers. There’s a lot more millionaires these days too as well as billionaires. A lot of them post online and get super offended you’re calling them out.

As for those who are defending all that. I got no clue. Why defend them. Yikes.
