Drugs, violence, hard times, disability, being abandoned etc. affect us all. Hell, most homeless people are white males. Many of them substance addicted or mentally ill. Race doesn’t guarantee you anything. This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever read in my entire life. I refuse to believe OP is anything but a troll. No one is this dumb. Lol. Unfortunately this came from an actual tweet that got a shitload of likes/retweets, like most of the racist drivel that comes from black twitter. 😂😂😭 so many butt hurt white people, I don’t care y’all talked shit about us whether we were educated, poor, rich or had mental health issues so suck it up Originally posted by ihiphop Excuses Excuses. If you’re white and broke in America today you are lazy and literally not trying point blank period. 1. Yes everyone of all races deals with drugs and poverty and abandonment etc but white people have never experienced the ugly side of red-lining which contributes to the wealth disparities affecting black people to this day no matter how educated or smart we are.



2. Yes white people deal with drug addiction but the war on drugs never stashed white drug addicts in prison by the millions.



3. Yes white people deal with abandonment but white children are the most desirable in adoption and fostering to the point where people are willing to pay more just to have a white adopted child. So whats’s the other excuse? I could keep going. The truth of the matter is that white supremacy ensures a certain position for you the moment you are born into white culture with white skin. White privilege is a very powerful safety blanket with a long history and a proven success rate. The world is LITERALLY your oyster if you are a white person and there is no adversity you could not overcome if you simply just learned about your privilege and used it tenaciously to move forward from anything in life and achieve success. So, again, if you are white and broke you’re lazy a f.

Let’s list all of the “isms” found here:

First off, we have classism. Poverty often lasts through generations. A lot of white men who grew up in poverty struggle to catch up because of their financial situations. Read up on Appalachia for only one example.

Next, we have ableism. A lot of white men are poor because of various disabilities.

Finally, there’s ageism. When we become senior citizens, jobs can be hard to come by. A lot of companies let older employees go because they want to skew younger. There’s a reason that you see so many elderly Wal-Mart greeters.

So yeah, you aren’t nearly as “woke” as you think you are.
