Honestly, nothing is more absurd about whiteness as the fact that white people will literally vote against their own self interest–as long as they believe people of color, especially black & nw latinos, will be even more harmed by these measures.

It’s why you’ll have poor whites who rely on public assistance for survival repeatedly support politicians looking to defund the very same programs that they themselves rely on, getting worked up in a frenzy about the imagined threat of ‘blacks and illegals’ scamming the system. Even when they themselves fudge the numbers a little in their paperwork to better ensure their own survival–committing the very same fraud they claim to be concerned about.

That level of hatred, so ingrained and unquestioned that addressing it and discussing it feels like a fools’ errand, should be unimaginable. And yet, perhaps the most amazing part of it is that we’ve been known all of this. It’s not even surprising.

This is okay for white people to reblog, but I appreciate y'all asking to be sure!

Relevant quote from President Lyndon B. Johnson for why this “get them to vote against their own best interests” plot works:“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.” (100% true, Snopes proven)
