Can you share some examples of poverty being romanticized? What comes to my mind is how there seems to be a lot of emphasis and appreciation for folks who are able to escape it, but that doesn’t seem too bad to me. Stories about poverty don’t make me romanticize poverty, they make me appreciate what I have. I don’t disagree with what you said. Just looking for the connection.
