Are you even paying attention to the discussion? You act as if all of those things haven't impacted current generations. You act as if people who fought in WW2 aren't still alive. This isn't hundreds of years ago.
Because those white people pulled themselves up by their bootstraps and went to work according to @basso
Sorry. That was after white Daddy went to school on the GI Bill and got a VA Loan for his first house. Then he pulled himself up by his bootstraps
Obviously not the case. If it was, nobody would have advocated the lessons. Of course we don't know what the lessons are nor is it explained what the issue with the lessons are. Instead the editorial uses editorial word choices and descriptions designed to get a reaction from people who see cultural items as scary.
I am sure they know what the lessons are, but they don't know what you claim is obviously wrong with them. I'm asking you to say what you believe is obviously wrong.
Don't forget the CIA infiltrating black communities with Crack in the 80's. Or the entire shift of opinion on welfare by pivoting the pre-60's narrative from the truth that most on welfare were rural white Americans to the mid-60's and beyond narrative that black people were most of the welfare recipients (this culminated with Reagan's "Welfare Queen" stereotype which still prevails today). In the early 60's, most conservatives supported welfare programs. It wasn't until the re-framing of the welfare recipients as black that conservatives began opposing welfare.
