Ignorance. The idea that socialists are not allowed to have made a bit of cash over many years of hard work. Similar to the idea that all capitalists are evil, uncaring, upper-class, chauvinistic, heartless fascists.
wolf, I think they are little labels which enable people to express dislike or contempt without having to explain why they have such emotions. They are slogans which they presume are understood and approved of by their 'gang'. Ask them to explain their dislike of the targets and they are not very explicit. OG and woof I understand. TTT I understand, although he seems to think that hypocrisy is the greatest evil: he would seem to prefer that trying to better the lot of the poor or underprivileged should take second place to preserving one's own purity.

I didn't see that in TTT's post. You're imagining it.
He's right. Champagne Socialists do think socialism is great ... for other people. They are hypocrites.
