5. They do not care about getting these things for themselves

As much as they wish to keep poc, immigrants and even single mothers from getting them. This is a problem that is arising from them. Once again society must change the rules to give them an even greater advantage. They think any competition is unfair and imagine that any law meant to protect minorities is an attack on them. They are not self aware enough to see that these laws emerge from their own bigotry and hate.
I am a 5o year old white guy.. I have worked with and successfully competed with people of all stripes, I have three hernia scars, a back surgery scar and two fucked up knees to show for it. But I would not trade those scars for an unfair advantage over the hard working poc that I respect for their work ethic and tenacity. (Not to mention that their food is generally better than American "cuisine &quot
I have spent my whole working life in Ky and it is mostly fat , entitled, lazy white guys (30 to 50 yrs old) who piss and moan about how great the minorities have it, even as they work along side them.
I am not sure I want to be associated politically with them anyway. It is bad enough that I am the same color and the assholes thinkI am like them.

Not being heard by old white males, so they blame non-white males. Makes perfect sense. ck4829 Mar 2020 #14
