It’s ok to be casually racist against white people because it’s “punching up”. Which implies white people are superior. Which is racist against non-whites wait…
And that poor WHITE boy is still going to have more privelage than a poor black one. Gee, maybe it’s like, some sort of spectrum and not quite so… black and white.
right, because people’s skin color is inherently how much power and priveldge they have…
and not actual power and privilege. because you know, we can’t talk about that. we just attribute it to skin color. and that’s not extremely racist at all…
Do you have any real world experience with underprivledged people, or is this all purely theoretical for you?
Plenty of white kids have it way worse than black kids, or any other race of kid, or mixed kids. But that would require learning about the circumstances of the individual, rather than treating their ‘privledge’ as a pure product of their skin color.
What if the black kid is Jewish? or Episcopalian? Did you know those religious groups have much higher incomes than Catholics or Baptists? or does skin color trump religion?

… that’s like saying billionaires are superior, because you punch up at them. It’s not about being better, it’s about privilege.
rich white men are privileged.
poor whites, are not privileged.
and there are way more poor white people than rich white people.
Poor whites are still white. Yes they’re still privilege
Edit - at this point 4 downvotes. 4 white people need to pull theirs heads out their ass
cool, go trade places with a poor white boy in louisana and see how much ‘privilege’ that life brings.
I’m sure you will love the lack of education, economic opportunity, and the backwards culture you’re brought up in that you can’t escape.
oh, you don’t want ot make that trade? gee, maybe because you’re more privileged than they are…

Yes. Like, yeah bud. That’s how racism works. White people are going to have more privilege than black people.
That’s not to say that the poor white kid isn’t going to experience hardships but the poor black child is deffo gonna have it way worse.
