Just-world fallacy.

Some people believe that good things happen to good people. Bad things happen to bad people. Elon musk is a billionaire because he's done something to deserve it (worked hard, super smart, etc). Victims of crime must have done something to deserve it. Etc.

It's associated with right wing authoritarianism and other alt-right beliefs so I'm assuming most people around here don't fall for the just-world fallacy.
