Racism will never bring down the cost of groceries or gas.

The sad thing is that racists and white supremacists don’t care. They’ll blow the entire country up to preserve their whiteness, or die trying.

I hope their wee brains explode when they realize many of "the blax" have personal & community gardens, know how to preserve food & other things. We will carpool, walk, bike or stay close to home because none of this is new. And we won't be crying or trying to off ourselves, either.

Several young (20s-ish) Black women I know have been learning to sew, knit, change the oil on their cars, paint, and all sorts of other life skills training.

That's great. My gen learned those things & much more early. In middle school home ec, they were teaching us to make a cup of cocoa when we could already fry a chicken, make a pot roast dinner & bake desserts from scratch. It's sad that those skills have been downplayed.

Neoconservative economists like Francis Fukuyama thought the promise of shared prosperity would lead to the end of major global conflicts. Nope, leaders of countries start wars even when it leads to hardship for their own citizens.

But at least while they’re watching their kids die from starvation and malnourishment and preventable diseases, they will enjoy the eternal satisfaction of owning the libs, and knowing that even though their own kids get nothing, they are denying BIPOC the same.

A while back, someone posted that white people would rather eat shit than share ice cream. I'm adding that they would pay premium prices for shit if they thought Black people wouldn't get any.🤣🤣

Hate never made anyone great that's why god was cast out of heaven. He was the original racist because he refused to tolerate people from other planes of existence. It's funny to ignorantly blaspheme just because you don't believe in something doesn't mean it isn't true even if it can't be proven.

Some people would rather pay higher prices, never own a home, even die of a preventable disease, than give up their hate. They oppose policies that would improve their own lives because they fear some group they hate might also benefit.

Racism will see costs rise & convince racists it's worth it so they can make their perceived enemies suffer. I say "Racism is costly. In theory. In practice. And impact.

Yeah, it is fucking insanity that these people continue to vote against their own interests, including a lot of POC minstrels, who I guess also think of themselves as temporarily displaced billionaires alongside the christo-fascist shit. What a Looney Tunes country. * lmao*

Regardless of Political persuasion. All American households pay the Tariffs imposed by Potus trumpie. And the Increased Federal. State Taxes applicable to all purchases at CHECKOUT. Bleed'n Moronic Imbicilic Knuckle Dragging Numbnuts Cupid Stunt Eejits. 🇮🇪🇪🇺

Expect further increases in Basic Food Imported into trumpieland. America imports upto 70% of the Food Consumed daily from Tariffed Countries. Because the Treasury is Borrowing Billions of euros to buy Japanese Yen. The Mighty Dollar has fallen against the Euro. Japanese Government hold $1.5T 🇮🇪🇪🇺

But it makes some people FEEL better. Can you imagine? Being shortchanged all of your life but because someone is seen as less than, you denigrate the target. The pump doesn’t give a fuck about race, gender, sexuality or faith.

I just got a text from Anthony Constantino’s office. He seems to think this is all Kathy Hochul’s fault. I have already reported his office for harassment and I now I plan to sue because they won’t leave me alone. That won’t bring down the cost of gas or groceries either but I’m doing it anyway.

Racists will gladly pay higher prices & have less freedom themselves as long as they get to enjoy the suffering of others. Evil is not logical.

I usually agree with you, but I will gently push back. Justifying policies that keep people in cycles of poverty ensures that they will take the low-wage jobs offered to them. That is the point - to make us feel we don’t have to care for them. It can make stuff cheaper, but we are all poorer for it.

But you will hv failing businesses that depend on migrant workers. And rich families will continue to hv underpaid overworked hands around the house. Trump used Mexican tradesmen for his construction projects. Just an ol rally cry advised by pudin in the infiltration of Western govt. Way to go maga

Someone show me one racist country where people are truly happy. Or any right-wing country in general. They can't. because for all it's "us" talk, right wing politics are, at their heart, a "man against man and each for himself". And that mindset doesn't produce happiness, it never has, never will.

Going sideways with your post for a moment (Yeah, I recognized it for what it is) remember when the Sec't Agriculture said we could get chicken/broccoli/a tortilla/1 other thing all for $3.00? Dems should play that video in an endless loop.

But it can sure drive the cost up. Companies selling petroleum products getting are windfall (not to be confused with wind farm) and wholesalers and retailers of unpoisoned food profiting.

i have been thinking a lot about racism! america will soundly reject harmful narratives. a revolution is happening around the world from my point of view. we will yank the modis, trumps, putins, netanyahus etc out of leadership. the internet is friend & foe in this regard. ⚖️☮️cleaning👏🏻 up👏🏻 shop👏🏻

It's not meant to, it's meant to distract the racists from the cost of groceries and gas and to give them someone to blame for their own failures. That's what peddling racism has always been about.

Of course it doesn't but it keeps the plebs divided and hating on each other rather than on the people in charge who are REALLY causing the hardship. 'Othering' is as old as politics itself because, sadly, it works.
