Who Deserves What?

Who gets to decide who deserves help, grace, a second chance…or even empathy? In this episode of You Oughta Know Betta, we’re getting into why we can see the same struggle and have completely different reactions depending on who is experiencing it. We’re digging into the psychology, history, and politics behind deservingness, from attribution theory and the “aesthetic of poor” to the policies we build around who we believe is worthy of help. Because maybe the question isn’t just “Who deserves what?” Maybe we should be asking why we think we get to decide. 🦄✨ Know Betta. Do Betta. Be Betta. This is a public episode.
