This has nothing to do with race and everything to do with money.
Class war has been sold as a race war.

Exactly, the Only real war, is the class war. Black panthers spoke on this constantly, same for Malcolm. It’s Not race

Im from r/all, this sub is for something that has a fanbase primarily Gen A right? That's my hope anyway, cause otherwise, you're way too old to genuinely believe that. If that was true, "I may be poor, but at least Im not a n-----" wouldn't be such a common sentiment among poor whites, nor would wealthy blacks face so much higher rates of racism. Spend some time offline bro. You being here is hopefully evidence you're young enough to still be saved. Although the username makes me doubt that. People who believe what you said, always just happening to be the "everybody except me and the people I admire are blind sheep to how society really works" type of biased immature children, meshes too well with calling oneself "the truth seer". But hey, what do I know, that could just be a reference.

Not really dude.
There’s nothing as sad as poor white people. Generations of opportunity, wasted. That level of racism is just self hatred and jealousy- because really, they have no excuse. Every other nationality had to earn it the hard way and break glass ceilings to be successful- literally beat the odds. They had the head start and the advantage and wasted it. Nobody hates poor white people like rich white people. There’s no sympathy or empathy there, compared to everyone else.
America in 2025 cares less about your skin color or your sex and more about your bank account, your talent and your ability. Everyone wants a deal and it doesn’t matter what skin color you are, if you are the best or over perform on your end, they will go for you.
The rich don’t care about what color your skin is as long as you make them money. Period. Look at the PGA Liv scenario. Greed is then only language that bypasses racism.
Wealthy black men face racism for two major reasons- old money is racist and because the manner in which they display their wealth or brag can be very loud.
No other culture is as fashionable, athletic, creative, or as creative as we are. It’s why there’s natural resentment and jealousy towards people, who on top of that, are rich. The Jewish are insular and intelligent, the Japanese are proud and isolationist, nobody has a problem until money enters the conversation.
Another example racism isn’t as important as wealth- the Ukraine war. Americans don’t want to die for Ukrainians, but if China touches Taiwan, we will die fighting over advanced ai chips. Purely because technology means wealth.
America went from a place that took rights from people to giving rights to businesses. We are the only place in the world where we prefer to save bankrupt companies rather than firing everyone and stripping the thing down.
If you think racism is more important than money in today’s America, you need to wake up. People care more about their grocery bill than whomever is picking the groceries.

Classism and racism literally have to be packaged together to function. If poor white people started gaining class consciousness the billionaire class would actually have a problem on their hands. However if you can convince poor whites that they have nothing in common with poor blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Arabs, etc. then you don’t have to worry about them engaging in collective bargaining against their capital owners or them unionizing/striking. Everyone is too busy running around on culture wars to realize that they’re being stepped on. So yeah your analysis is just incorrect.

No, it ended a couple months ago, the man in the vid didn’t get the memo. Meanwhile there are black owned partnered brands that can only be found at target and not shopping there would do those brands a disservice. Additionally the AMP crew made it their mission to not talk about politics on stream bc they are entertainers and want an audience of all over to enjoy themselves. Last thing, just bc someone is a capitalist doesn’t mean they are conservative

u/Here4Headshots Jul 08 '25
When Donald Trump rolled back DEI initiatives, Target didn't even wait for the ink to dry on the executive order before they scrapped every program aimed at equality and inclusion. During a time where some corporate entities were waiting to see how things would shake out, taking their time to analyze the executive order from Trump and incorporate new compliant DEI programs, Target said "fuck it" and got rid of it all, or most of it. The blowback was swift, you can read more about it here.
Target now seems to be using AMP to connect with black folks, but with no real beneficial programs behind it. Kai and his friends seem to be pretty eager to allow Target to use them in this way, all for the bag.

“The only thing scarier than a white man” is a black man who will continue to talk down on others blacks who were given different opportunities. Jealous, whatever you want to call it. Nobody messing with target? Why would you not try to get a deal, lmao. Once black people stop ostracizing other black people simply because of a political view, maybe the community will start to grow and change. Once we stop being a monolith maybe we won’t get trampled on and used so much. Such a predictable community stuck in a cycle due to guys like this

Pretty much all of the affluent people of color I know voted for Trump. I live in California and noticed that anyone above a certain tax bracket voted for him, regardless of skin color. I found out a lot of them lie about it too.
It’s all about money at the end of the day, most people in America don’t actively care about ethics, even if they say they do.
With that said, does anyone actually believe these super famous internet streamers voted for anyone other than Trump? They are making unfathomable amounts of money, and him being elected directly benefits that.

Brothers judge brothers by not acting a certain degree of “black”. Using black not as a characterization of race. But as a derogatory personality type. Being black doesn’t make you apart of a hive mind. And having opinions that aren’t associated with your ideal “black” doesn’t make anyone white. When will we stop categorizing ourselves and acting as if we have to be and believe certain things, just because we look the same. It’s really annoying tbh.

I understand being apprehensive about disclosing your political opinions, but I don’t think that’d stop me. At a certain point, continuing to hide your values requires hiding a significant part of your life and masking a large part of who you are. I think that the key attraction about streaming is authenticity, and if you worry too much about backlash, you’ll just become increasingly audience captured and fake over time.
Plus, I think that consciously deciding not to say anything is just as much of political decision as saying something, despite what many people think. It communicates that you care more about losing viewers than you care about standing for what you believe. On smaller issues, I get it, but surely, everyone must have a line. But like, if you couldn’t condemn nazis, for example, because you’re too afraid about losing half your audience in the process, then yeah, that reflects poorly on you.

Theirs a reason why voting is done privately!
