    I mean at that point its a pathological need to be ‘better’/different from everybody else. Poor people can travel the world, poor people can take a booze cruise even if they don’t own the yacht, poor people can even go to space if they train and study enough. If poor people are pedos its a whole lot harder for them to get away with it and they definitely can’t have parties or tell anyone about it. So the exclusivity, plus the fact that its become ritualized and used for blackmail purposes mean that once you’ve been pushed to cross that line once, you keep crossing it, and pushing others to cross it with you.
