Progressive policies are not popular with racists lol. Some racists like them, but they’re far *more* popular with people of color and whites with low racial resentment.

Social Security literally had to be written to exclude most Black workers at the time to satisfy racists https://twitter.com/angryblacklady/status/1324801392733614080

White people consistently approve of redistributive economic policy at lower rates than people of color, especially BIPOC.

The racial group with the highest approval of socialism, and highest disapproval of capitalism? Literally since modern polling began? Black people.

It’s been consistent for decades.

Black people have opposed every war by higher margins than whites at the same time. Black people have supported social democratic economic policy more than whites every damn time

You know who supports the $15 minimum wage most? BIPOC. You know who supports it the least? White people. You know what’s inversely correlated to white support for a higher minimum wage? Racial resentment

This is just a vicious fucking lie that erases the progressivism of people of color and smears progressive policy *people of color support more than white people* as racist policy. This is, in fact, fucking racist propaganda. Racist, capitalist propaganda.

This is literally propaganda to *lie* about the generalized political beliefs of people of color. It erases them and their ideology. It runs cover for white racists, too. This is execrable

This isn’t “woke”. This is a damn lie. A racist, capitalist goddamn lie.
