I know, forget me for responding to your question! I should've pulled a Red Spy and posted a cringey reaction meme.

i should've pulled a you and called someone a loser

This is bullstuff. If I grow up in a stuffty neighborhood with a single mom who insists I drop out of highschool to get a job at a gas station (or even selling drugs) to bring in additional income I'm never gonna get a degree or rise high in society.

if you put aside your own success for an easy route of bringing in less money than you could by taking the long way, then your will was never strong enough to succeed in the first place. sorry for the dark outlook but that's how i see it

The only question is why are you defending subtley-tribal bullstuff?

huh?

(like that blacks have no racial disadvantage)

i never said that there wasn't a disadvantage where a lot of black people sit financially. i'm just saying that there's nothing majorly stopping the impoverished from not being impoverished except their motivation and the bare minimum income that welfare and the job cleaning stuff streaks off the 7-11's bathroom walls provides. people are naturally prone to taking the easiest way of barely scraping by because it requires less effort than educating themselves and working their way up the system

if that cop treats an innocent white nurse like that how must he treat black teenagers in possession of weed or something? on-the-spot execution?

Actually more white people die from police than black people.

You also can't claim it's because whites are the majority population because black people commit more crime than white people total.

also gentrification forgets stuff over. the entire area in bedstuy where i used to live just got completely whitified by hipster restaurants and all these healthy juice bars. when my family moved out the rent was manageable, but all my friends that used to live there got forced out by like, 3500 a month rent and had to move into sunset park. this type of stuff means you gotta change schools, gotta change your commute, spend money moving all your stuff out, etc.

its not directly a tribal move on anyone's part but it definitely forgets over people of color more than anything

It forgets people of color over because our communities suck hot stuff
If my area got "whitified" I'd be loving ecstatic. No more graffiti everywhere, no more of these loving beltless zombies walking around, no more abandoned burnt out buildings no one even bothers to fix, no more trash all over the loving place, and maybe I could go out for a burger at 3 am and not get mugged
White communities don't get gentrified often because they're already nice, it's not rocket science
