To be fair, they also do the same with... well everyone. They like a strict hierarchy with straight white married christian cis men at the top.
Who furthermore wear suits and ties (rather than e.g. t-shirts and sandals) and kiss up to those "above" them, while looking down and calling names the ones "below" - e.g. scientists who studied covid, engineers who made the vaccine, doctors who administered them, even people who received them, etc.
The closer you get to the top, the more the pyramid has to narrow down. The white poor people have no idea just how much e.g. Donald Trump loathes them, despite being caught on camera saying exactly how much. They think "bc I'm white, I'll be fine", and that lunacy affected us all.
