Original Note:
This trope has been used for decades. It's a spin on the "welfare queen" trope. Typically claimed is that they see them buying steak and lobster. This article is from 2015 for instance. https://theconversation.com/people-on-food-stamps-arent-feasting-on-filet-mignon-43158#:~:text=There%20is%20a%20popular%20myth,and%20families%20with%20nutritious%20meals. This is classic rage bait from a verified user with a shop in bio and large following.
