Poor people of color always have it harder than poor whites or rich people of color. Rich whites have it easiest. Among the rich whites, there are distinctions of religion (mostly Christians vs Jews), education, cultural origins, and of course the degree of wealth.

There. That's the hierarchy, which you already knew about.

There was a redhead girl a grade below me who was constantly teased for being extremely pale with a no color skin tone.

She would get called pasty and veiny along with other more insulting terms I will not say here.

I believe it. Redheads get picked on a lot.

I think you have gotten to what the woke folks like to call intersectionality OP.

There are all different types of isms, classism, ageism, sexism, etc etc. You can be more impacted by one than another or impacted by many simultaneously.

Sure it does, lol. I’m sure all of those poor white people are having to teach their children how to avoid getting shot by police when profiled and pulled over.

This dumb trope has been statistically debunked so many times...ugh.

The risk of getting killed by police while black is incredibly low. Last year 229 black people were shot and killed by police. The preoccupation that black people must teach their kids how to avoid getting shot by police is just another data point in the very robust narrative that humans are very poor at assessing risk.

A MUCH higher number of black people die (like 10-20x+) as a result of cars AND the disparity between blacks and whites is even greater. Systemic racism can be attributed as a cause (worse infrastructure in black neighborhoods, particularly worse ped and bike)… yet everyone focuses on the 229 deaths by cop.

Exactly. Relatable.

That's the measure of a human's worth?

Well I would say that many people label classism as racism. So there’s that.

Yes, for example, people discriminate against me because I haven't joined their country club.

Racism that working-class immigrants face is way different than the kind upper-class folks face?
