That's an important part of it. Let's say half of it. I'd say the other half is zero-sum thinking about literally everything. If they see someone receiving help, their brain is screaming at them that those resources could have gone to them instead. I think it presents more as a strong feeling of moral right and wrong. They will never understand equity when their brain is tuned so badly wrong.
