    Lmaoo poor white people will, most of the time have some kind of advantage over other ethnic minorities.

    Especially if they live in an area notorious for racism. A black person with a nice car could easily be stopped for looking suspicious.

    Institutional racism isn’t always about wealth...

    Oh s***, I didn't see this post before I made mine. I'm crying at how our joints correlate

    Myself & other black folks I know have literally been pulled out of cars and had our s*** searched for d**** we didn't have.

    I'm not even super rich or nothing, I'm just a black dude in my 20s with a pretty cool car.

    We have worse stories but that just goes to show you that even when you're doing GOOD for yourself, you still a suspect in the eyes of the law.

    I’m not arguing about stereotyping with police, that injustice is very obvious

    What I’m saying is, not every whites person is handed wealth

    A lot are poor as s*** and getting f***ed out by the government and rich people just as much as the next person

    Tell that the the millions of white people stuck in poverty

    Their white skin doesn’t help them out of that one

    Racial biases exist, just like those against gay people, poor people, poc, mental illness, etc. And yes it's easier for white people to escape poverty, generally speaking, than black people. That doesn't mean they don't struggle or they don't go through s***. It's just what it is.

    Yeah and then some of these poor whites will do dumb s*** like blame immigrants for taking their jobs & hold on to racist ideals and support rich white politicians who dont give a f*** about them instead of seeing s*** for what it is.

    True, but I’ve seen black people blame immigrants as well

    I’d argue, aside from the criminal justice system, it’s more about class now than race

    Class is a factor, but my main problem is that people who use the "it's about class" argument try to act like racism doesnt factor in as well.

    And that's what this thread is about.

    How motherfuckers can still be in the same s*** situations as one another but will literally look down on someone due to them being black.

    In a righteous world solidarity between us would be stronger but it ain't. Folks got hang-ups about black people that they need to confront cuz that s*** is weird.

    But in the past black people have been denied loans and mortgages because of their skin colour

    This is true, but black people are so closely tied to a lower class in America that racism often overlaps

    Even it’s more about class than race, there’s still the factor of race being a major thing lmao.

    Basically that’s just saying you might be getting beat down by two people, but im fighting one guy over here myself

    I wish more black people learned that every race on the planet is racist towards us.

    That defending every other race against racism has gotten us no where, nor has it helped us any.

    Sooo we should be pro-racism against races that aren’t ours?

    What if Black not my only race either?
