"Some of the countries best race tracks have dealt with this similar thing. Track gets build out in the boonies, boonies get bought and rich folk move in, complain about track noise, sometimes gets the track shut down. Personally, I believe some sort of 'It was here first' regarding things like parks and race tracks should exist to stop this from happening." said u/TheSherbs.

"My wife and I follow a Tiktok account of this guy who just goes into various thrift stores to show how absurd it is. Mug with no handle for a 1995 graduation party? $8.99 Used stick of deodorant? $4.99 Used birthday candles taped back up in original packaging that were sold at Dollar General brand new for $3? You can snag those up for $4.99 at Goodwill!" said u/WE-NEED-MORE-CATS.

"Internet was the one I was going to go with. Back when the internet was just losers who had no other place in society everything was cool. You knew the only people online were people who genuinely wanted to be part of the community and subculture. Then the rich people found out about it, and now it's nothing but ads, subscriptions fees, data gathering, and rich people pretending to be hip." said u/bennitori.

Everything Rich People Ruined for the Rest of the World: A Thread
Once upon a time in a small American city, way back before it became the "hip" town it's known as today, there was a beautiful natural cold spring that the locals shared in harmony all throughout the warmer months. There was plenty of space for everyone and admittance was free, so long as locals took care of the beautiful land. One day, a bunch of rich people from a bigger, more expensive city decided to relocate to the unassuming town because they heard it was dirt cheap. Fast forward several years and now that same cold spring is a hellish landscape of wealthy yuppies who took over, built nearby condos and parking lots, totally ruining the whole vibe. A tale as old as time.
If this scenario feels all too familiar, get ready for this thread full of examples of times rich people ruined things for everyone else.
