    I think a lot of people read this as “I want credit for my kindness”

    I actually think the real animator of the right is much worse.

    They want to choose who is deserving of their kindness.

    They want to be able to choose who gets help. Person that did something they don’t agree with, no help. Person that’s sympathetic to them, help.

    That’s the reason they dislike systematic assistance. Because someone that doesn’t deserve help might get some.
