Given that:

    1) Cultural factors often raise people from poor to middle class
    2) The above often happens with little monetary input
    3) Culture is transmissible
In contrast, giving people money and resources has a very poor track record for increasing wealth long term. Why aren't social justice people all about the transmission of wealth building cultural knowledge? If anything, on the whole, they seem ideologically in favor of policies that erode the transmission of wealth building cultural knowledge.

I hope you're not asking me, because I don't understand the social justice people at all.

My guess is a combination of social media obsession and limited life experience cause them to optimize for 'sounding woke' over 'things that help real people'.
