This comic seems out dated. Right now a lot more people are in a similar situation, regardless of ethnicity. The only ones at the top are those of the upper class.
Then there are the racists who are all below like everyone else, but in their unintelligence turn against their fellows.
The only ones at the top right now are the rich cunts who profit from ethnic and cultural divides.
Put it this way: you as a working class white person may need one box to see the game, but a working class black person needs two boxes (because they need to overcome poverty and systemic racism, while you only need to overcome poverty)
Nobody is denying the struggle of the working class, but working class white people (specifically cis men) need to recognize that other working class groups are also struggling the same struggle but dealing with additional issues of racism, misogyny, trans/homophobia, etc. at the same time.
You cannot have equity without first enforcing equality. Otherwise equity just becomes spoiled entitled behavior.
Equality is absolute.
Reminds me of tankies' oxymoronic "well then we'll make them free".
Great. We'll start with equality of opportunity, which requires affirmative action.
It requires some heads to role first. Some old dinosaurs still around are dragging the whole world down with them.
