That stigma. I’ve had arguments with Black boomers and older GenXers about welfare. That stigma about being on welfare is still strong amongst some of us.
No matter how much I try to tell them there’s no shame they didn’t care. It’s crazy to me to think having an EBT card is beneath you, but also see no issue in millionaires and billionaires taking your tax money to fund their business endeavors.
Yeah, lmao....the idea of being self-made is deeply ingrained into the American marketing campaign. It's a white lie, not a small one, but one borne of whiteness, LMFAO. Not one of their asses ✌🏾made it✌🏾 on their own. 😭😭😭
Try telling the general population that the existence of slavery PROVES white people were broke as hell??? And also lazy??? Not just continental whites, but Crumpet whites, too!
been saying this for years but the internalized racism-classism double team mashup with the racism fully informing the damn classism is sooooooo hard to combat.
Deadass, and it's extra wild because in invoking both, they NEGATE THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS that they're answers to?!?! They ain't expect that many veterans TO RETURN! They didn't expect so many of us to SURVIVE the Depression! They didn't expect our babies TO SURVIVE our wombs!
