       This is true.

       I disagree with this interpretation. Poor "whites" are going
       against their own self-interest, not against "white"
       self-interest. This is because the rich are overwhelmingly
       "white". So when poor "whites" prefer the rich keep more of
       their money, they are in effect preferring more money continuing
       to be under "white" control (albeit not their own) as opposed to
       going under "non-white" control. To the extent that money
       improves survivability, they are improving the likelikhood that
       the last survivors in the future bottleneck are "white". Thus
       this is normal "white" genetic survivalist behaviour.
       For comparison, if in an alternate universe where the rich are
       overwhelmingly "non-white", do you still think poor "whites"
       would oppose social safety net policies?

       > 7:267 minutes, 26 secondsBecause James Carville recently came

       and they're smart to run on and they're smart policy. So he came

       Oh, that's right. Their name isn't Hassan.
       > 8:048 minutes, 4 secondsHis name's Hassan [ __ ] He's uh, you

       Malakro for example. I can go on and on.
       > 8:248 minutes, 24 secondsBut look at all these young people of
       color who are winning and that's somehow different and that's
       somehow icky.
