>It looks like we just disagree. I do believe that is often society’s fault, and that it’s usually just a lazy way to absolve one’s self of blame or moral duty to act, or to justify that it’s OK to take political action that tacitly increases harm to the poor because it’s “their fault” they experience the circumstances they do.
Apparently people believe the poor to be not just poor, but also an inferior race.
They're poor because they are inferior (lazy, lack self-discipline, self-destructive, etc).
After all, they used to say much the same things for blacks and women back in the day too. We got better than that, but in progressive cycles it's still acceptable to say those things for the poor these days...
There is nothing more infuriating that you actively ignoring my adjacent comment or the intent of what I am trying to say in order to demonize me and put sentiment into my words that were never there. You are scum for doing; absolutely wretched and vile.
