Prejudice against the rich often stems from perceptions of elitism, privilege, and a lack of empathy for the struggles faced by those with fewer resources. Conversely, prejudice against the poor can arise from stereotypes that depict them as lazy or irresponsible, leading to social stigma. These biases are fueled by economic inequality and can be exacerbated by cultural narratives that divide people into "us" versus "them." Ultimately, such prejudices reflect deeper societal issues related to class, power, and opportunity.

How do you think Nazi leaders were able to influence ordinary citizens when it came to prejudice against Jews?

Ordinary citizens were already prejudice against Jews, this is why the Nazis persecuted them, had people been prejudice against people who wore glasses, then the Nazis would have campained on that front. What the Nazis did was use that prejudice and build on it. They did this as part of a gradual progress; they first took away the Jews' right to work, then thier citizenship, then their right to own property. So eventually the Jews were poor, unable to earn money or feed themselves, destitute and a burden on society. So when the Nazis suggested deporting the Jews, ordinary people welcomed it.
