Depending on the tone, this is either a mischievous or menacing reworking of the cliche -

"if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" - which suggests that futile opposition is not always the best course of action.

Conversely, the reworked idiom suggests that "have nots" may, or should, harm or disenfranchise those who exclude them from their class or group.
