The OP video is also absolutely that. It's insulting for the judge to even say "you are what America is about, helping your son go do his blood work even at 90". Why on earth is a 90 year old needing to drive his son for Healthcare? Because for the 90% America is about exploiting you until you die, because there is no system, only private rich corporations.
It's how a lot of conservatives genuinely think, that these feel good situations only come out of toil and suffering. It's why they loved "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" for so long.
It's not malice, just stupidity. They don't see the harm in perpetuating these systems because they don't think that much about it.
