Who? Who are these people?

Around 90% of the population of this planet.

I’m pretty sure you just mean rich people are afraid of any progress

No.

No normal person is afraid of getting their basic human needs

That's false - a lot of people think that them getting their basic human needs would collapse something and cause irreparable damage. It's bullshit, of course, but people - in general - are just by default afraid of change.

People are afraid of the extreme deprivation which is a foundation for capitalism

That's absolutely false. I mean, come on, look around. If that were true, we wouldn't have a resurgence of right-wing, liberal capitalism parties all across the board, and the US wouldn't be what it is!

You keep using this term without any evidence of it existing.

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean. Could you elaborate?
