How dare someone be poor! Anyone who makes that choice is doing it to be offensive!

Why does it matter if they’re poor or not?
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Didn’t you know? If you’re poor, you’re supposed to be ashamed of it because it means you didn’t try hard enough to not be poor.

Basically what they’re really saying here is that anyone with money would agree with them and have no issues with the negative impacts of golf because it’s something that all financially well-off people enjoy. Therefore, if you have any issue with golf in any way, it must be because you don’t have the money to enjoy it, because every single person that ever lived is in love with golf, and the only reason anyone might have for not golfing is lack of funds.
Of course the nonsense needs no explanation, but that’s the angle they were going for, and why they’re rightly being ridiculed for it.

For someone who spends so much time talking about growing up in poverty, this is a surprisingly callous thing to say.
