It's both. They were both. Both types of people have existed for all of history. I know for a fact that a majority of my ancestors were poor and did not go to school and thus would be "uneducated" as well. And this applies to everyone, unless you're somehow from an unbroken line of nobility, which doesn't exist.
The difference? The law of the land was based on common morality and Christianity, and the above type were, in general, unable to have anywhere near as much influence as today.
I agree! You're right that it was both. They weren't wholly good, nor wholly bad. I still thought I'd share the meme though, because I found it thought provoking and uplifting.
