Kindness is Punk

I understand that wealth is the primary decider of one’s rights in America.

However you can’t say that Reagan deliberately putting drugs in black neighborhoods didn’t have a systemic effect on the advantages of black people in America.

You can’t say that women earning 80% as much as men doesn’t have an effect on how high they could reach.

I don’t think that any one thing decides which class you’re going to be but it does stack the cards against you. Maybe this person never experienced it but she certainly had a higher chance of it.

They’re aren’t implying that it’s because of those things. They are saying as an individual who has undoubtedly been subject to those systemic abuses is makes it all the more stomach turning that they’d be a cog in perpetuating it.
