People who hate the successful...

[uncommon]

traditionally people who held resentful ideas probably were held inert by forces of nature.

the onset of the internet gives power to resentful ideas. and it gives a plethora things to be resentful about than would traitionally be applicable to the person.

so in a sense it can not only make corruption more powerful but make more people prone to corruption.

is it possible the internet removed a natural block on a societal negative feedback loop?

Well, I actually agree. I don't think "hating success" is understood in any real sense. It's a perception. White men are looked at as being the most successful in the West, which is why being white is now considered "problematic" in many circles. However, white men aren't ACTUALLY the most successful. It's just this perception held by people like this.

Is this thread about "winners" or are you trying to backdoor some racial grievance thread? One is interesting, the other isn't.

sooooooo...

We should stop hating the Kardashians and start watching their shows? Is that what this thread is about??????

if you hate the Kardashians you are jealous of their succes. become successful by watching the Kardashians and you can get rid of your anti-UFC sentiment too!

That's a James K. Galbraith quote.

Yes. I knew that. It's a dead-on statement.
