    This shit pisses me off so much. Like dude, they didn't even have an attempt to establish inter generational wealth

    they not only dismiss the legacy of slavery, imperialism, colonialism, genocide, sexism, racism, segregation, etc. They deny those things are still happening, and they also deny primitive accumulation. Old money families are rich just because they're smart and frugal. Not because their ancestors killed a bunch of people. No no no, that would be impossible.
