It's funny how yall injest the words of celebrities. Say something you like, and they're gods, say something you don't like and they're automatic c00ns.

I feel like some of you have a critical thinking deficit, if you can't seem to accept that classism plays as much of a role as racism does. Classism existed long before racism and sexism did.
Didn't read the whole quote.
Didn't know this was some more of that "black on black violence all lives matter" nonsense

Dawg, I grew up RICH. My dad is a doctor with three practices. Our families' house is a 20+ room mansion in western PA where players from the Pittsburgh Steelers live....there were only 3 other black families in that neighborhood. Other than that it was mostly whites, some asians (east asians aka indians and asian asians ie koreans chinese japanese doctors engineers techs etc). He has 7 cars.And yet, they are still 100times better off than a poor black person.

My dad afforded me and my siblings the best private school education...paid for our college education/tuition, etc.
Tell me why I still ended up homeless for 8 months last year.
Tell me why even with money I was getting turned down to find simple housing
Tell me why every job interview I went to except for two...I got turned down....
it really isn't the same.
If you're a white person and cant' succeed in a country that was designed for your success at our expense, I have no sympathy for you and you're a loser and a failure.
More proof we got to work twice as hard to be considered half as good as someone who is half as good as me and I'm two times better than.
Race trumps everything. Don't be dense.
Seems like a revenge thread for asking women to dress with self respect.

It'd be dense not to realize that racism is a tool used to justify who is on the lower end of social class and who is higher.

Poor country whites and poor inner city blacks have more in common than differences.
Yet somehow they're the two groups that complain the most about the other group
Wonder how that happened
Those poor country whites were the main ones leading the lynch mobs to hang both rich and poor black people. We don't have anything in common with those devils.

Church.
And even then, they still aren't poor.
If you have ever set foot outside of this country and seen the "poor" in other countries, you wouldn't say shyt. Mufukkaz really don't know what poor is unless you traveled and seen how destitute shyt is in other parts of the world.
What's always been funny to me is that poor whites aren't even mentioned or as completely classified differently than poor blacks. We're all grouped together as black people, but whites are quick to separate themselves in different groups and completely ignore the poor whites like they don't even fukkin exist.

As of right now, and until further notice Erykah Badu is suspected c00n. It's fukk her until she proves otherwise
I still wanna smash though
Nah, you are both right.
Poor whites think they are better than poor blacks when in reality they really are the same (Economically especially). It's fukkin comical at times. I'm like you broke too fool! They put down blacks to make themselves "feel" better when in reality they ain't shyt either.

Which is why trumps getting so big.. Theyve taken their poor for granted and now the GOP is going crazy not understanding whats going on.
White America is splitting with trump pandering towards a mentality that rich whites put in place so poor whites felt some type of power, which is their race.
its interesting to watch to say the least

How are we the same when poor whites have access to resources that poor black people don't have access to?
