That’s why white people don’t work fast food any more. They underpay immigrants, who are then forced to live 10 to a house and white people complain about that too.
(I am a white person)
What? Capitalism created an oppressed underclass that got trapped in menial labor?
The market will fix itself no worries
Not like that!
Yeah but you can sell this argument better to the rubes if you phrase it using examples they can see for themselves.
About a third to a half of the fast food workers near me are black Americans.
This is also disproportionately high for our area.
Damn dude, why are you doing these things??
By “doing these things” do you mean “not working in fast food”?
Because it sucks and I was afforded opportunities to not have to be stuck there.
That doesn’t mean I have to look down on the people who are working a shitty job here because it’s still better than whatever they left.
These are smart, courageous people doing work us pampered fatsos don’t want to do.
