Yeah. But that kid might be black or trans. Have you thought about that?

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.

-Lyndon B. Johnson

When the racist white people tell you "yeah, that works there because they're all white" they aren't wrong. They just are not right for the reason they think they are.

Right wingers are distracted by identity politics because it keeps them from understanding their class position.
