In Victorian times fiction like Jules Verne’s novels and the like, rich yachtsmen saving the day is kind of a trope. What I’m trying to say is that the previous iteration of super rich fucks had some kind of heroic idea of themselves, some kind of noblesse oblige. These cunts are just cunts.
For some cases, actual noblesse were also the government and they lived among the people. They also took pride in the family image because it was political capital. It surely wasn’t perfect but it wasn’t as bad as the US and their glorified cupidity.
Probably the past ones are just fiction as well. Probably they always ignored pleas for help. But they paid for writers to say differently. Or just lied about it.
You’re right. And our ruling class can probably point out to the absolute amount of money they spend on their foundations of choice to say they are even more charitable than the Victorians. Ugh.
Ah yes, the generation of super rich fucks who were happy to have children mangled in the machinery of their textile factories had “noblesse oblige.”
