Indeed. A similar example is smug members of the professional-managerial class supporting tough climate legislation like banning vehicles driven by fossil fuels - they'll just buy a Tesla for $90k while telling the plebs who cant afford that price tag to take the bus.


While its 100% accurate people are less woke in their heads then reality, progressive policies to fix inner cities take time. u can vote for integrated schools or job placement programs to help the community in the long term while also being wary of the reality of low income issues in real time.

it wouldnt need to be said if we didnt hear retorts like "well then u invite them into YOUR home" from low brained people.

true, but that wasnt actually my point.

there is a big, very general pattern of people supporting pro-equality and -justice policies as long as they expect the burden and negative side effects of these policies to be shouldered by someone else.
"you shall pay the price for my morals" could be the inofficial motto of modern politics.

100%, and there's buyers remorse as well. unintended consequences pop up and people doubt their choices, then feel guilty later and support it again, and around and around they go.

A juror in the Derek Chauvin trial may have jeopardized the guilty verdict by attending a rally last year and wearing a “Get Your Knee Off Our Necks/BLM” T-shirt, raising questions about whether he told the truth during jury selection

What may come back to haunt the prosecution is that Mr. Mitchell, 31, answered “no” when asked during jury selection if he had attended any protests for George Floyd


wonder how all this is gonna play out now... something or nothing?

Progressives have been "fixing" in inner city for close to 60 years. How much more time do they need?

the question can be answered with 2 questions:

How many bandaids does it take to close a gaping wound?

and

Why are we using bandaids anyways?

democrats used bandaids to buy votes, it was effective at gaining everlasting support but also not effective at changing the reality of the ghetto.

housing projects that crumble in 2 decades and welfare creating a perpetual poverty cycle were never going to be enough to combat societal racism and the drastically further back place in the race of life many black people start from.

even the classic retort of "well asians overcame" falls a bit short, as there's a marked difference of immigrating to the US in the early 1900s to get paid slim wages and forced immigration in the 1700s to earn nothing. asians escaped the hell of share cropping, etc.

what will it take? a combination of libertarian localized capitalism and federally funded subsidizing to fuel the fire. black empowerment to succeed, not black enslavement to vote.
