There’s been some confusion or just straight misinformation from the Fox News Losers because Biden has said that he plans on making sure POC have access to the vaccine. I wanna get something straight, I live in an underserved mostly black community. He’s talking about making sure the vaccine is available at our local community health center free of charge. That includes my white ass, too. Everything that benefits a community of color helps me too because I live in one. Just clarifying. It’s not like the community health center turns people away because they’re white.

That’s not my point.

I’m just saying. He could phrase it “poor people” or “communities of color” either way if you live in the hood and they provide an easy access sliding scale clinic with social workers on the premises that’s a good thing whatever your skin tone. I’m not ashamed to want healthcare too. Damn. They built a new community clinic close to where I live and it’s been a godsend.

Idgaf if I’m the only white person there. They don’t either.

on average blacks need more help getting it

So I shouldn’t be able to go to the community clinic. I mean wtf is your point?

On average poor people can’t get ****ing healthcare whatever their social construct. You can’t even help poor blacks without helping a poor white guy who lives in the same community. I’m saying I benefited from a clinic that was primarily built to help people of color. So ****ing what. If you don’t think that’s a good thing **** you. Don’t go to the doctor then.

Both of them made comments that belittled the position that I’m happy that I got some help too even if I wasn’t the target of the identity politics language. Straight dog whistle code for poor whites should just stfu. **** that poor is poor.

No, if white people are like 'BuT WhAt aBoUT PoOr WhIte PeOpLe' every time something benefits poor black communities they should stfu. That observation isn't belittling towards your position

Then why bring it up directly in response to what I was saying?

go easy on those windmills

Marie Monday 01-22-2021 04:43 PM

to answer your question: because it's relevant to the topic. You basically both agree that the 'but poor white people' argument is bull****: you observe it's nonsense because poor white people profit from it too, Elph observes that it sucks anyway
