Inwardly, folks like Matt and his compadres feeeel a deep-seated guilt for being successful..

One way they attempt to assauge the guilt and sharing the blame for being so successful is by re-appropriating ‘OPM’ and donating theirs to noble causes like global warming and hunger while they party with dictators and dickheads...

Classic DemocRat the last 100 years.

Close, but I don't think that's it. It's not that successful actors feel guilty, but rather that they feel inadequate. They are known as dynamic and heroic figures from the roles they play, but, in real life, they've done little if anything to match their public image. This leads them to over compensate by taking what they perceive (and would like you to perceive) as heroic positions on social issues, or in the case of women, an obsession for adopting children from unfortunate circumstances.
