Music Banter - Political Discussions for "Adults"

to answer your question: because it's relevant to the topic. You basically both agree that the 'but poor white people' argument is bull****: you observe it's nonsense because poor white people profit from it too, Elph observes that it sucks anyway

I’m just saying. He could phrase it “poor people” or “communities of color” either way if you live in the hood and they provide an easy access sliding scale clinic with social workers on the premises that’s a good thing whatever your skin tone. I’m not ashamed to want healthcare too. Damn. They built a new community clinic close to where I live and it’s been a godsend.

Idgaf if I’m the only white person there. They don’t either.

I know it's not your point lol

It was a joke. An Archie bunker style of racism where I can tolerate handouts to POC as long as it benefits at least one white guy.

but it should be ok to issue a policy that just helps blacks

So you think if I show up in the exact same financial situation it would be ok to say nope blacks only?

Imagine if it were a policy that only helped poor whites. The media backlash would be amazing.

Anteater pretending like he doesn't understand white supremacy just makes him look like a pussy for not being in DC for Jan 6.

I understand it perfectly, OP-EDs and all. I just think it's mostly bull****.

What if there was a poverty relief effort that targeted an all white Appalachian community?

And again, elph, should a community clinic be allowed to turn people in the same financial situation away because they’re white?

If you think so you’re ****ing moron.

Congrats on reading OP-EDs and ignoring American politics in general.
