something very very interesting about us (2019) is how it represents class... anyone can succeed if they are given the right circumstances and same chances which is why when adelaide swapped places with red she was able to thrive and learn skills like dancing that she otherwise couldn't in her life below with the tethered. she was given the opportunity that no one else in the tunnels had, if they did they probably would've been able to have the same chances as well.
poor people are not inherently stupid or less than, its just a lot of time there aren't the same amount of resources given. in this case the people below weren't prioritized the same, even being abandoned all together. the tethered were given a worse version of what the people above had, then left to replicate the closest thing to normal living that they could do. always forced to be mirroring what the people above were doing but in a worse and more horrific way.
neither red or adelaide were in the wrong. red is trying to take back what she had torn away from her and what the other tethered people were starved of, agency and freedom. while adelaide is desperately trying to keep what she had fought so hard to even get. chances at a normal and successful life, even a family. all things that she cant afford to lose.
