Michael Che nennt SNAP Freeze „wirklich beschissen“: Ich sehe immer wieder „rassistische Videos, in denen gefeiert wird, dass (überwiegend schwarze) Familien keine Lebensmittel kaufen können“

Yeah, for some reason racists think all black people all live on SNAP.
> “This SNAP freeze is really fucked up,” Che wrote in an Instagram post Saturday. “And I keep seeing a lotta racist videos celebrating (mostly black) families not being able to buy groceries. There’s this weird idea that since some people have taken advantage of welfare benefits in the hood, NOBODY should receive help, at all? This country is built on greedy motherfuckers taking shortcuts and gaming the system to their benefit, but for some reason, when poor people find a way to turn a nickel into a dime, they’re judged more severely, especially Blacks.”
> He continued, “I [know] the hustle is to hate each other here so we can fight in the comments and up our engagements, but let’s draw the line at feeding the poor. I grew up on free cheese and powdered milk and waiting for your friends to leave the store so they won’t see me pay with stamps. That shit ain’t as glamorous as it sounds. I promise.”
I get it but this kind of rhetoric is just going to divide poor and working class folks along race. We have to stop falling for this trap.
Even if the price of feeding the hungry is a few people taking advantage of it, I’d gladly pay it
A lot of the videos are very obviously AI as well
This guy contributed to so much hate speech people can’t even watch it.
Good on him for speaking up, people shouldn’t be celebrating families struggling to eat regardless of politics
It’s funny because it’s something like 60% white people that make up snap benefits
Anyone posting this racist shit needed outed like they went after Charlie Kirk celebrating. This way worse in my opinion. Obviously not on Reddit as that would be doxxing but you know it happened with Kirk anyway.
