@a_wesley_g So going back a bit, now that I actually have time to make a post. So I need to ask about this point. "Asking for an ID isn’t a race issue. Appalachian isn’t a race." The fuck do you mean by this? Like really, where in my post did I even say that it was? We're everyone who ended up here. That's a cultural identity, not a racial identity. It just so happened that a lot of us with white skin ended up in Appalachia because of Racial Pedigree Laws. For context, I identify as Human. I don't give a damn about the color of my skin. But I'm here because someone thought my ancestors of the West Virginian side of my family were "Clay Eaters, Offscourings, and Lowdowners who were polluting future generations to permanent defectiveness and needed to be separated from affluent white folk to keep from breeding." Paraphrasing of course. That's the part that relates to systemic racism. The rest of your argument basically boils down to egocentric assertions. Buddy, the DMV? Not everyone out in these parts can afford a car. If you aren't one of us, don't go speaking for us. (And if anyone is curious about the history of the word "White Trash", here's a nice little anthropological lecture. Trust me, it goes places even conventional civil rights activists are apprehensive to touch.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVgATitO8c0
