propaganda works. since Ronald Reagan the media has been pushing this idea that the only ppl "on welfare" are black ppl who drive brand new Cadillac's to the grocery store and eat lobster and steak every night. they are the same ppl who think that only black ppl commit crime. so they have no issue with snap benefits going away because "those ppl need to get jobs"

so even poor white ppl who rely on those benefits don't believe their aid will get cut off because they are white and don't get "welfare" like black ppl

the whole thing is really a master class in the effectiveness of staying on message for 40 years and now here we are.

here in Oregon there are over 700,000 ppl who receive food assistance there's only 137,000 black ppl in the entire state. that math isn't mathing

@zuul I don't know if I'm just that much smarter - I'm baffled how many white people were duped in to thinking they aren't on SNAP and ACA Benefits.

@zuul Let's not forget that people purposefully had more kids just to get more welfare.

@crowdotblack @zuul Yep, that is another myth generated by propaganda. It's both anti-poor and eugenics!
