These days being white and poor is even worse than being black and poor because at least you can blame racism if you're black. You are much more likely to be poor if you're black because of systemic racism so your argument is very white and privileged. Only white people who are privileged think that whites lacking privilege is worse than blacks lacking privilege. 1

You are much more likely to be poor if you're black Not in Puerto Rico. because of systemic racism Pretty simplistic to look at one variable and hang your explanation on it. High school dropouts are more poor because of arrogant educated people holding em down, right? Or maybe generational factors play more of a role... Why does systematic racism not keep poor black immigrants poor? They tend to do well after they are here for a bit. Also, why does systematic racism disappear for black people after they are married?

Bottom line, you want to be a victim so you can avoid responsibility for your failures in life. "White privilege", "White supremacy" is the new victim card you can play to justify your lack of accomplishments. Before you start blaming external sources, look at yourself and the decisions you've made in life that led to you being where you are today. I believe the latter is the biggest reason you're where your at and unhappy with your lot. 1

The system is supposed to be there to serve humanity you offensively stupid idiot. People don't fail the system. The system fails people. The "bottom line" is that you are looking for a plausible excuse why other people have less material things than you do, and are willing to invoke any irrational and stupid explanation which confirms your own narcissistic belief structure. You literally feel like you are "better" than other people because you have had some measure of success. And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why capitalism is such a divisive and self-destructive method of running an economy. It fortifies hate, delusion and tribal class divisions, vilifies the poor and mythologises the rich. 0
