11. You got it all backwards
"It is not the consciousness of men that determines their existence, but their social existence that determines their consciousness."

-Karl Marx's 1859 Preface to the Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy

But yes it is clear you support the status quo in a system that is grotesquely unjust. And yes people believe different things mostly based on which class they identify with.

“While there is a lower class I am in it; while there is a criminal element I am of it; while there is a soul in prison, I am not free”

- Eugene Debs
