Both twist something (staples of young white working class fashion, tracksuits, gold, caps, and trainers, a cute Australian animal) into something dangerous (chav/drop bear) and that caricature is wrongfully said to be it’s own thing (a subculture/a carnivorous marsupial species - in reality, sociologists have confirmed there was no “chav” subculture, like how zoologists have said there’s no “drop bear” species) in order to make people fearful (chav especially is riddled with classism, though.)
