That is exactly it.

People who defend billionaires online seem to think that they will be chosen out of a crowd of people by a billionaire who will be like "Hey pal, you are very special. Thanks for defending me on Glorbo Social when that guy said I reminded him of a squid. Here's a million dollars for your troubles."

I also think most Americans grossly overestimate their own ability to become wealthy through hard work, and assume that billionaires just worked their way into their wealth.

When I see people defending billionaires, I hear Chris Rock in my head asking where his O.J. prize is

Or they think they're just one meme coin investment away from being a billionaire themselves & want to live in a world where billionaires like themselves rule.
