I wish people would stop spouting this nonsense. In my country, rich people are very flashy, whether they are “old money” or “new money.” Other countries may be different. Not every rich person is exactly the same (though being rich is unethical, so they are all the same in that regard).
I don’t think being rich itself is unethical. Unethical is what you do with what you have. And, I prefer everyone to be rich than everyone to be poor. That would now make everyone unethical?
There is a nugget of truth to it but it’s more of a middle upper class thing where the blokes who show money aren’t necessarily the ones who have money.
People with money don’t buy the expensive flashy things. That’s why they still have money. Buffet drives a ten year old car.

if everybody were rich, that would cause inflation, and then consumables would be just as out of reach as they already are

All good lies have bits of truth in them. All of these very public rich people have PR firms behind them designing their image.
How is it propaganda? What’s the mental process it’s trying to induce?
Trying to invoke feelings other than the disgust you should have for their actions.
Frugality is not what made Buffett a billionaire. Lol
