Sure everything is intersectional and whiteness helps you earn money but it also does other things

  • The police won’t shoot you for just living
  • White women aren’t stereotyped as welfare queens when they use welfare
  • A white boy wearing a hoodie isn’t a called a thug
  • Society is more likely to…

poor white people living in trailers are not stereotyped and villified the same way as brown people living in housing projects 

society is less inclined to believe white people {of any social class} physically abuse their kids and more inclined to believe brown people brutalize our kids 

when white people feed their families fast food its bonding time/a family meal {just peep any fast food or commercial restaurant commercial featuring a white family}. yet when brown people feed their kids fast food we’re contributing to an epidemic

white people who get involved in non-abrahemic faiths are considered spiritually evolved. yet when brown people do anything outside the folds of monotheism or abrahemic faiths we’re some backwards ass folks 

the natural body odors of white people are never considered naturally offensive. yet brown people are constantly told our natural bodily smells are an affront to peoples sensibilities irrespective of cause or personal circumstance 

man the list goes on and on
