an odd part of internet psychology is the immutable notion that nobody actually gives any fucks about you as a person. there is a certain trope people are practically staring 24/7 to deploy which is to point out anything you say doesn't matter because somebody else technically has less. the weird thing about this is people salivate to field it even when that *isn't* the thesis of what you are talking about.
that's correct. the thesis of your statement can be, "i lived in upper crust, and poverty, and observed these differences" and bam. prepare to hear about how children in africa fight over a single cricket and that's how discussing how the wealthy do not live in the same city as everyone else despite being in the same physical location becomes about how you should just enjoy your free housing because not everyone qualifies for it.
wait, what? i wish someone told my landlord that my rent was free.
yes, the self-righteous "SOMEONE ELSE HAS IT WORSE!!" teardown doesn't even have to make sense, be correct, relevant to anything. remember to never put in any effort to communicate with someone--if you see an opportunity to vomit about how someone has something worse just crash whatever conversation they were trying to have and feel morally superior about the process.
