   "That's just capitalism!"

   "That's just America!"

   "It's class! Not race!"

   Are minimizing statements that take focus off of the racism that I clearly illustrate. And these comments usually come from people that haven't even bothered to look into *why* America is like this (racism), or look into seeing how much is class, and how much is race (it's mostly race).

   It's annoying.

     @tenet@defcon.social @Unampho @thekernelinyellow I'm not sure what being white has to do with anything" is the mealy mouthed, soft worded way that people say "I'm tired of hearing you complain about anti-Black racism!"

     I'm not sure if that's what you're doing, but that's what it sounds like.

     So I'm going to answer you in good faith: US news thinks white kids are cuter than Black kids, so they usually make these videos starring white kids, not Black ones. You can easily find several featuring white kids.
