Yea… I think I don’t get the joke. The poor are absolutely not there by chance, they are poor because the rich steal almost all the value they create through their labor, as well as a vast differential in access and opportunity between the rich and poor, (also a creation of the rich). Is this not an anti-capitalist meme?

Largely it’s on purpose. Not on their own, of course.
if the poor didn’t want to be poor, why didn’t they pull themselves up by their bootstraps and become trillionaires?

It’s not really a joke. He basically said the poor are poor on purpose. Not their purpose, someone else’s.
Every now and then, the poor figure that out, and rebalance the scales. We need to do that now.
