Black women have been instrumental in so many human and civil rights movements. They bring our society forward and out of patriarchy's evil grasp. That's why these racist white fucks want to portray a "welfare queen" that is black.

Right, because no one who is white has ever collected welfare!
🤣
I grew up in an extremely red area. Also very rural. I can tell you that welfare is mostly what held the fabric of things together, barely. It was virtually 100% white, too.
And yet, those fuckers were still voting Republican and bitching about "those people" in the cities "on welfare".
I moved from Arkansas in 2021. I lived there for 18 years. A vast majority of welfare and EBT/SNAP recipients there are white - most of whom are also on drugs; such as meth. Just Arkansans unable to face reality on yet another topic of daily life there among many.
Edit: Just wanted to throw this out there, my source for this info is my mother who worked for Arkansas HHS for 20 years.
I also moved out of Arkansas in 2021. I had lived there almost my entire life.
My hometown and the surrounding areas are almost entirely white. So it makes sense that the majority of welfare recipients are white. Hell, I was dirt poor growing up and we got assistance. I specifically remember WIC and food stamps.
I have family who know that we were on welfare who would still reference "welfare queens" because they're conservative and it goes without saying, also racist.
I live just north of the border in Missouri, but I saw a woman who lived in Arkansas for a while. I can definitely confirm that the majority population of that state are rural white trash bumpkins who are mostly methed out.
@MicroWave Forty years of pushing that bullshyte will keep any "trope" alive.
Suddenly the chuds are all about fair representation in media
but fake fairness because, 54% of wellfare recipients in Arkansas are white
It's more about having their racicsm fed to them on a silver platter, because non-whites on welfare and food stamps makes more sense to those bigoted, uneducated people.
I love that it's not even welfare, it's Medicaid. The problem with this ad isn't that the guy is white, it's that we're trying harder and harder to make medical care and simply existing harder for everyone, not just the people who need these services.
Someone needs to remake this so that you find out they are working 50+ hours a week at Walmart and not able to spend time with their kid(s)
I think I saw someone post Assmangold raging about this, too. Awful stuff.
Make an ad for ranchers, bailed out bankers, too big to fail automakers, coal industry, etc etc. This one is great though. You know you're doing it right if they're mad.
Honestly that Matt Walsh guy would be really good at making fountains in front of speaking events at universities.
All the best plumbers are racist.
