Real Talk: there is no excuse to be poor and white

[TheBigBopper]

of course this occurs this is not “proving” that this opportunity is afforded to all poor white ppl hence my statement the pie can only be sliced so many ways....yes some poor white ppl benefit from the crumbs of white supremacy they get...I never denied that

And you completely ignored my comment that GDP isn’t fixed. If the pie can only be sliced so many ways, then why is it that the middle class and upper class has risen over the last 100 years ? Your argument indicates a gross ignorance of basic economics. People create wealth. It’s not static.

I’ve always read that the middle class is shrinking sometimes I ignore posts that seem totally absurd rather than waste time looking to pick it apart...I don’t do the back and forth thing or look to argue every point once I’ve made my larger point

It depends on when you measure it. Over the last two decades or so, middle class has decreased while upper class has increased, but over a larger period, middle class has grown. I mention this to prove that the economic “pie” is not a fixed quantum, otherwise GDP would have stayed the same for years and everyone, rich, middle class and poor would be worse off because wages would be stagnant and so would home values and stocks. You could make an argument that middle class income has stagnated, but aside from the housing crisis in 2008, clearly you can’t make that argument for assets. Asset values have recovered and the data I showed you proves that whites have significantly greater access to ownership of assets than blacks.

Therefore, all a white needs to do is get an average job, flip their money into homeownership and stocks, and they will rise out of poverty, whereas blacks can’t even get a job in the first place.

Waste of privilege and skin color.

The older I get the more I realize the truth of this statement.

It's unfortunate that Black people have to deal with the scum of White society.

 

[AuntAnniesPretzels]

Some people of all races just lack ambition, mental stability, work ethic and guidance. Of course if a white person decided to apply themselves they would get further along than a black man doing the same all other things being equal. White ppl have opportunities for prosperity and comfort in all 50 states while there are large swathes of America that are straight no go zones for black people

There’s always the police force and military to protect the rich, elite anglo-saxons.

I wouldn't say that white people CHOOSE to be poor. The way the country is structured (collectively their fault) makes it REAL easy to be poor.

But they definitely have more ways out of being poor than black people.

Remember that some black companies hire white figureheads just to be able to get investments.

That tells you everything.

Agree

I've always said this shyt I look down on white people who are even on the same level as me



Dumb lazy motherfukkers
All the opportunity and resources and the average cac still can't make shyt out of themselves

I'm convinced this site has been taken over by the 25 or younger crowd, because some of the shyt y'all been saying, especially if late is just flat out stupid.

Did I just read white people are surpressed by white supremacy what's going on this site

If you understand the nature of the power structure. White supremacy is just a tool to maintain power. Keeping poor whites focused on immigrants and blacks instead of putting their foot on the neck of those who run things is ingrained in white supremacist ideology.

Let's rephrase it. Look at Europe and colonialism. Colonialism benefitted those in power and the upper class. But do you think poor Europeans were somehow all uplifted when riches were found in foreign lands? But those same poor people would have been in support of colonialism and all the prejudices it represents.

Poor people of all color working together is scarier to the powerful than divided groups trying to only organize within themselves. White supremacy helps with this.

“I’ll tell you what’s at the bottom of it,” he said. “If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”
