It's the liberal's idea of progressive. Catch each type of pokemon (minority) and you're progressive.

Equipping a sassy gay friend as a +1 to fashion statements. 
Do you think we can make money off of the more lib rich people by offering our "fashion services" for 200 an hour, and teach them our "fashion secrets"?
You could but you'd really have to play into the bit and basically perform like a circus animal for the rich fucks to seal the deal first.
Th new one is so funny, it tries to rewrite them as woke but it's full of boomerisms like getting mad at service workers and being an airbnb landlord lol
It may well be the same out of touch people writing the damn thing that are now older and even more arrogant and out of touch.

Also Carrie as a podcaster is so good
excuse me, sweetie, my feminist icon impulsively buys a pair of uncomfortable shoes for $1900 and marries a guy whose identity is being megarich.

Yeah, it sucked. It was at the height of end of history delusion.
Between that show and Grey's Anatomy, one of my worst exes once made me sit through some of the most nauseatingly arrogant affluenza fever dreams that could be conjured by the early 2000s. 
I blame early 2000s TV around 11% for the housing crisis, it's one of the first times the zeitgeist has looked at cities and said "Hey! Rich people and trust fund kids only! Go fuck off to the suburbs that we ironically came from, poors!"
How many characters on "Friends" actually had a source of income that wasn't being the failsons or faildaughters of off-screen rich parents? How could they afford Generic New York Luxury Apartment #666 like that?
I actually love Grey's Anatomy, because I approach it from the perspective of 'What if we let a bunch of horny teenagers be doctors?'
The subtle propaganda of it was staggering. "Look at how these affluent yet overworked narcissists somehow have over 24 hours in a day to do residency and also fuck and slapfight each other over stupid petty bullshit. What's your excuse, poors?" 
Oh yeah, in hindsight it was horrible but hey, most of the characters die horribly violent and hilarious deaths, so honestly it's a wash from me.
As an LGBT person, the rich's love-hate relationship with us is crazy.
So apparently we're all undesirables, but our existence is also endearingly chic that they need to make everywhere we go turn into one of their personal country clubs. Look at San Francisco, if we're such undesirables, then why is the LGBT city the city with the highest property values?
