I wonder if this is why the concept of white privilege makes no sense to them.

I don’t think many people know that Irish were white until the 1950’s.

I know multiple fellow white people who literally have no personality outside of propaganda. Dittoheads, my mom always called them. When you try to talk to them outside this programming, you can see their brain glitch. They change the subject back to propaganda scripts or sometimes get angry/offended/hurt/feel attacked so they can find a foothold in another panic or outrage script. Getting them to have their own thoughts again is sometimes a lifelong journey, if they are brave enough to even try.

This is why they fear critical race theory so much.

From Appalachia. I’m a first gen college grad. I was blessed and fortunate. it wasn’t until I left that I even had a clue what was happening to us. All this is correct. The ppl that are still there still don’t know. 😞

It’s not an accident most people read below a 6th grade level. They profit off our lack of education

As a previously poor white person who's moving into social work, I thought I saw past most of the propaganda. As I started learning more, I realized just how deep the rot went. I'm still doing work to undo the damage it caused me, which is me learning just how insidious and deep it goes. This video is so important for people to know.

The Irish in America were portrayed as drunks, violent, and bad workers because they were good at organizing and leading labour movements in the 19th Century.

We were taught that we'd become rich and become the masters if we worked hard enough for the rich. It's the same narrative we learned in school. "Work hard and get an education and you can do anything you want."

Poor white girl here 👋 I've known the only "us vs them" that was happening was the rich vs poor since i was a kid. The rich want us against each other based on race or religion so we focus on hating eachother instead of the actual systems that are working against ALL of us

As a poor white person, I couldn't agree more, as the victim mindset builds resentment and cruelty which is what the system needs to keep pushing the hate forward to divide race further.

As a white person who grew up in a home with money issues, I've always been able to see the truth about the govt...I'm always just as astounded that others can't see it

I saw an Irish girl on here tell Irish Americans (like myself) “they stole your language, don’t let them steal your tongue.” That’s exactly what the rich elites and the government have been trying to do for over a century. We left Ireland due to British oppression, but I feel like we just traded one oppressor for another.

I believe a lot of white people here ( including myself ) especially those of Irish and Scottish ancestry have gone / still going through an centuries long ethnic cleansing that's so well done a lot of us have no culture memory of what it's like before we were just " white".

The history of workers fighting for rights in Appalachia tells the story. The elites were scared when workers of all backgrounds unite.

This. You can not have a conversation about it because their ego is attached to it.
