Why is it we never hear about Black working class men or Latino working class men? I've always been offended by the term White working class men because it carries with it the unspoken assumption that men of color aren't part of the working class. A lot of us work are solidly working class...Bus drivers, janitors, restaurant employees and auto workers. Do you know how many of us have been poor or working class all our lives and have had to watch in despair as the White "working class" shit all over us? Nowhere in your hand wringing post do you even mention working class people of color. And you expect us to feel compassion for you?

The White "working class" gave us Reagan, Bush 1 and Bush 2. This is turn gave us the war on drugs which ravaged communities of color incarcerating us at far greater rates and with much, much less empathy than is being displayed for the opioid problems of the communities of the White "working class" The White "working class" sneers at the "welfare queens" of the inner city while remaining conveniently silent about how social security disability has become an important economic component of the drug ravaged communities of Appalachia. You whine about young White "working class" workers only being able to $10 per hour while being absolutely oblivious to the fact that the fucking UNEMPLOYMENT rate for people of color in some communities is over 50% with no relief in sight. How, my friend, has the White "working class" expressed concern and solidarity with working class people of color about this. And yet you come here to chastise people for admonishing folks who have consistently voted against their interests, have no problem embracing racist and misogynistic candidates and who, as a whole, could give two fucking shits about working class people of color.

I could go on and on....Ya'll ain't fucking special.

Yeah.......cry me a fucking river.....get your own house in order.
