Being poor anything is a hard time but if you're poor and black you have an entire grievance/pr industry there lobbying for you, politicians pandering to you, scholarships, affirmative action, etc.

If you're a poor white person you have nothing. In fact, you get to constantly hear how evil and awful you are.

Poor and lower middle class blue collar white people have been trying to drag the corpse of Western Civilization across the finish line since the Vietnam era... but rich white liberals have done everything they can to bury the body.

ETA: In fairness, there are a lot of blue collar minorities working themselves to death, as well, with no one giving a shite about them other than what their skin collar is.

Yeah as I said, if you're poor life is hard in general, it's not like poor minorities are riding on easy street, but there seems to be an entire massive infrastructure in place trying to help and uplift poor minorities whereas if you're a poor white you're basically just ignored or told you're the problem.
