Bank managers in t-shirts and casual attire all the time? Come on. People showing up to the movies in effectively sweats and PJ's thinking they are in their living room are the people who are talking, texting, scrolling and more. Why? Cause they think they are in their living room.
People going to weddings and funerals looking like hobo's. It really isn't hard to show the smallest amount of respect and look decent, especially for men. Wearing what amounts to beach clothing and sports jerseys to a wedding, big surprise you had a $25 envelope, drank a mountain of free booze at the wedding and made an ass of yourself, everybody knew you were trash walking in.
People going to fine dining restaurants looking and acting like bums, bragging on the social media account about their steakhouse dinner. We get, you actually go out once a year and gotta tell the world, the rest of the time your amongst the other hobo's chowing down on non stop deep friend pickles and wings, arguing with the waitress about the beers on special. We have seen you there a million times and we know your not graming your happy hour specials.
Maybe I am just an old fashion guy in his 30's but I really appreciate how older people actually present themselves in public. The older women who is dressed up very nice from outfit, nails and hair was probably an absolute fox in her day. The man she is with looks like a boss dressed up nicely and clean.
The trash that just walked onto the airplane wearing tank tops, beachwear and causing a disturbance? Ya, they are the couple that is going to sit next to you, smell awful and start clipping their toenails on the plane enroute to Italy for their honeymoon. Like come on honey, you look like roadkill compared to the Italian women, maybe time to comb your hair and apply some fresh polish on your nails for the first time since high school, the old polish has more chips than your windshield.

Do you think it could be your perception of well dressed people versus casually dressed people drives this?
When you see a “slob” you become less tolerant of their anti-social behaviour. When you see a well dressed couple you are more tolerant of their anti-social behaviour.
I’m not accusing you of this but lots of the perception of what is progressional is just reinforcement of class or racial bias.
