It flies over heads because its a political fiction that people don't find consistent with reality.

People like this go on dates, get laid, get married, get divorced, go on more dates, and get married again all the time.

Their spouses vote Republican. Their kids vote Republican. Their friends and neighbors vote Republican. They all move to big conservative retirement communities and vote Republican together forever until they die.

This idea that rich fucks with big families don't live happily in their big homes all prattling on about how much better they are than everyone else is painfully naive
