    I'm not saying you shouldn't be offended by what he said. He plainly takes a very patronizing attitude. But interpreting it the way the thread title does is just trying to paint it in the worst possible light.

    Oh, he's in touch alright - it's just with the alt-right, KKK, Proud Boys and MAGA whites who haven't a clue about African-Americans. The argument goes like this:
    "The reason Black people fail is because they (a) don't work hard enough (b) aren't intelligent enough to take advantage of the boundless opportunities available to them or (c) are lazy and only want handouts from the Government"

    I've heard this bullshit all my life - it's known as the "Shiftless or Lazy Negro" excuse. Back in the 30s, 40s and 50s Black people were epitomized by the character Stepin Fetchit - a fictional character who was lazy, shiftless and stupid and who did not want to work hard or succeed. In order to deny the existence of systematic racism, this "rationale" was used by bigoted whites to shift the blame for the poor status of Black Americans on Black people themselves and not on the economic, social and political barriers they had to overcome during Jim Crow and segregation.

    Unlike others here, I don't believe someone else took over your account. However, I do think in the last few years something has happened to damage you emotionally/cognitively and it results in incoherent lashing out. Posts like this are the perfect example. Somehow, my post triggered from you a nonsensical defense of rural america, that wasn't attacked in the first place. It's really weird.

    Show me the exact words I used that insults farmers.

    You complain incessantly, it just usually makes little sense. About half of what you post is hard to follow.

    I make no reference to welfare and am not comparing them whatsoever. Farm subsidies are a $20+ billion/year government program so I just think it is appropriate to point out that if you are saying rural folks are opposed to government influence, then there is a pretty gaping exception you need to make for farm subsidies.
