Anger, frustration, classism
I have some serious problems with folks that judge those that ask for financial support.
We know from studies that folks that do that are usually using the money "wisely" or whatever. Yet the stereotype is that they all "waste" that money, as if it were a scam.
Not that it's even our place to judge how someone uses money they need. But ugh. I hate that.

@GreenandBlack And yet when I try to explain this sh!t to my family they metaphorically plug their ears start ranting about basic economics as if that magically makes it okay.

Before you ask, yes, I have seriously been told that I, someone who has lived in poverty for the last ten years, should examine my privilege before I criticize Marie Kondo's "throw away anything that doesn't delight you" approach to life.

marie kondo: "look, I have invented simplicity"
