Yep. I’ve tried convincing some black ppl til I was blue in the face that the only one oppressing them is in the mirror. There are no laws against them but it’s so trendy to whine about racism.
It's difficult, though, because you have an entire state apparatus telling them that they personally have been rendered helpless by whitey, but it's OK, the government will fix it for them.
It's deliberately a seductive, almost anesthetic message.
That’s very true. Also if there are multiple generations it’s hard to break the cycle. I’ve heard people who’ve gotten out of the welfare cycle talking about how their mom and grandmother were on it so they grew up thinking it was normal
