re: Biden announces businesses owned by minorities will receive relief priority over whites

Let the unity begin!

But to then lie and tell me what I see with my own eyes isn’t racism

They are trying to reword biden's statement to read:

"I am giving priority to minorities in order to ensure equal access"

that's not what the tweet says

also, where is the evidence that the ppp program and CARES act wasn't available to minority business owners?

quote:

---

Our priority will be Black, Latino, Asian, and Native American owned small businesses

Not only is it your reading that is "selective," but it also obtuse.

You have to read the "equal access" along with the "priority." If you do that, and especially in the context of a future "administration" that has done nothing but race and gender bait, then you obviously know that so-called "equal access" is to be accomplished via racial and gender discrimination.

Don't be a douche.

Eta: also, read literally, the equal access is independent of the rest of the list. So they're going to give funding priority to XYX. And work on equal access, whatever the frick that is. No one actually can explain it beyond blatant wealth redistribution tactics based on race and gender.

I don't expect any measure of rationality in the target audience or the source of this bullshite.

CBS News?

Try to cover your ignorance better.

The CBS story was about a report and a great majority of the story quoted the report. Obviously, you didn't actually read the story.

Like I said: -- ignorance --.

Can you not read the word FINALLY

He says finally because it’s a transition to a separate statement.

1. We are giving priority

2. And FINALLY we will ensure equal access

Why did they not receive loans? Was it because did their Color Or qualifications?

The article I linked said this:

quote:

---

One obstacle for minority business owners is that many banks participating in the low-interest, forgivable loan program are only issuing loans to existing clients to speed up the approval process that grants access to the money.

Businesses owned by people of color are less likely to have commercial banking relationships, Harrington said.

What is the definition of Black, Latino, Asian, and Native American?

Can you just declare to be one of those? Can they force you to take a DNA test to prove it?

No one gives a frick about your article.

The thread is about Joe Biden’s tweet.
He picked (probably not because he’s brain dead) that sentence to tweet. It’s not taken out of context, so we don’t need any additional information.

That’s what y’all told us about Charlottesville right?
Don’t listen to trump’s whole speech, just focus in on good people on both sides.

That literally does absolutely nothing for your argument idiot. In fact if anything it supports my second point above.

They're giving illegal, unconstitutional discriminatory loans based in race and gender.

And FINALLY we are fulfilling some completely amorphous, ersatz virtue goal of equal access to... what? If loans (presumed), then yeah we're using a bullshite Marxist phrase to justify our unconstitutional loans.

Why is this difficult. Regardless of shitty melodramatic and factually inaccurate adverbs, commas and conjunctions, the message is the same: we like to pander because we're soft racists and bigots and we don't give a shite about the Constitution.

Eta: I'm fairly certain one of us misread the other. Carry on.

the cbs story does not indicate that the ppp program was disproportionally unavailable to business owners of color.

From the report and included in the CBS Story:

quote:

---

Based on how the program is structured, we estimate that upwards of 90% of businesses owned by people of color have been, or will likely be, shut out of the Paycheck Protection Program,
