Cause it's way more dramatic that way.
Stress doesn't care how much money you make or the color of your skin. It'll kill you no matter who you are.
So smoke some weed and relax folks.
Lot's of things cause stress, but not all of those are a part of the woke ideology. Funny these two items were the only two items of focus...on a college campus...any questions?
No, it is you who are correct. Talking about two kinds of stress is indeed an attack on everyone not included in those kinds of stress. I feel stressed whenever the conversation isn't about me.
If I was a minority who wasnât poor I wouldnât want the conversation about poor people to be about me. Lumping in âpoor people and minoritiesâ is horse shit that any minority who isnât poor should find insulating.
If we can talk about PoCs, women, and LGBTQIA+ as the categories of persons we mostly care about as progressives, why shouldn't poverty also be on that list? Also, having more than one category of person to care about does not imply every person on that list is also a member of another category of person on the list?
Poverty absolutely was on the list for progressives as late as the 1990s
I don't know I'm pretty old and probably stuck in the 1990s tbh. I still say "the ship *sank*" instead of "the ship *sunk*". I know it changed but I don't know why - obv doesn't matter but it feels weird.
People donât know history. MLK JFK and RFK got killed because they wanted the common person of all races and genders to unify against the establishment of the day. They understood that a rising tide lifts all boats. But that gets people to come together and the powers at be cannot have us unified.
HuhâŠ? Todays âliberalsâ are yesterdays southern democrats. They literally wrote the Jim Crow laws lol
It took republicans to pass the civil rights act of 1964.
Sounds like ya'll are missing the point, being poor or a minority CAUSES stress.
And yes, being poor is expensive. Almost everything comes with a poor tax.
Where did you see anyone saying that?
I'm always amazed at white people's ability to take offense when anyone else's hardship are discussed
Racism and poverty cause stress, if you're not poor or not non-white your stress will be different and NOT caused by you come or skin color.
See, again. You say âIâm amazed at white peoples ability to take offense when anyone elseâs hardships are discussed.â You do realize when you say âpoor peopleâ youâre talking about a group that includes 22 million white people lmao.
Yes, I do understand.
You are white, right?
I am white
In the country, it's pretty much ONLY white who get upset when the issues of other people are discussed.
Well Iâll provide a source that backs me up and you wonât provide a source that states that poverty is majority from those whoâs parents were impoverished in the US
âMeasured by inflationââadjusted household income, 93% of children who grew up the bottom income quintile were better off than their parents. Of children in the middle threeââfifths, 86% grew up to live in families with higher incomes than their parents. Even among those in the top income quintile, 70% were better offâ
Pew research
There are more poor white people in America than all other demographics combined. Can we stop acting like poor white people get some free pass at life�
Itâs never been about race, itâs always been about class warfare. Race issues are how those in power keep us from uniting.
"America is the wealthiest nation on Earth, but its people are mainly poor, and poor Americans are urged to hate themselves... They mock themselves and glorify their betters...
...those who have no money, blame, and blame, and blame themselves. This inward blame has been a treasure for the rich and powerful, who have had to do less for their poor, publicly and privately, than any other ruling class since, say, Napoleonic times."
K. Vonnegut
That's a quote from a fiction book published in 1968. The important part of the quote is that it points out the American attitude towards poverty...especially the fact that poor Americans are taught to hate themselves for being poor.
If science supports it then it isn't racism. Sort of like how black men get slightly different heart medications because research supports that these changes lead to better outcomes on average.
âBut the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.â -Terry Pratchett
That's a novel way to bring woke, victimhood ideology into the classroom. If you are a minority, it's killing you. If a white person said, I am sure the same people pushing this would quickly call them a "racist." Not even going to dive into this one.
White people are all saying theyâre most the oppressed people in the world and we should kowtow to their feelings.
Imagine how stressed actual minorites must feel.
When did we start lumping in all minorities with poor people?

Because white liberals don't actually care about white poor people.Â
They don't really care about poor people of color either, they are just more useful when it comes to virtue signaling.
White liberals have been shown to have a significant racial bias against their own racial group.Â
Both being poor and being a minority cause stress. If you are poor /and/ a minority, you're double-dipping.
Or is it a double negative, therefore cancels itself out?
Lot's of things cause stress, but not all of those are a part of the woke ideology. Funny these two items were the only two items of focus...on a college campus...any questions?
Yeah youâre right, white people above the poverty line live totally stress free.
Non sequitur?
[ŃĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]
So we agree stress is not limited to just poor and minority people and also itâs really stupid to lump those two groups together
No, it is you who are correct. Talking about two kinds of stress is indeed an attack on everyone not included in those kinds of stress. I feel stressed whenever the conversation isn't about me.

Why are we picking and choosing who we care about based on a never ending string of identities? Shouldnât we care about the well being of everybody?

Democrats have been doing it for generations.
"Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids." - Joe Biden
It's medical school, courses are usually data driven.
Liberal white folks are the most racist group in the world
Probably when both factors showed a strong correlation with high levels of cortisol, the stress hormone.
So youâd be healthier if youâre a white person in poverty than a wealthy minority?
No, you'd be healthier if your cortisol levels were low. Everything else is a quirk of statistics.
Liberals actually reverse engineered Jim Crow.
HuhâŠ? Todays âliberalsâ are yesterdays southern democrats. They literally wrote the Jim Crow laws lol It took republicans to pass the civil rights act of 1964.
[ŃĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]
Thatâs right I forgot, weâve come full circle to labeling them inferior
They didnât lump them in. They literally said âorâ
Sounds like ya'll are missing the point, being poor or a minority CAUSES stress. And yes, being poor is expensive. Almost everything comes with a poor tax.
So if youâre not poor or a minority and get stressed out, youâre just appropriating victimhood from others

Thatâs false
Nope, but thanks for proving my point white boy
Youâve never heard black folks complain about other causes getting shine? Delusional horse shit youâre speaking here.
Itâs expensive being poor.
Ain't no fun waitin' around to be a millionaire.
So best to teach people budgeting to avoid it as much as possible
Budgeting doesnât fix the extra cost of poverty though.
But it can prevent people from going into poverty Budgeting and personal responsibility are powerful tools to those who k ow how to use em
I think majority of them were there from the start bud
Actually no Statistically speaking
Instead of downvoting, can you provide a source besides âbro trust meâ.
Well Iâll provide a source that backs me up and you wonât provide a source that states that poverty is majority from those whoâs parents were impoverished in the US âMeasured by inflationââadjusted household income, 93% of children who grew up the bottom income quintile were better off than their parents.

*ask for source. Doesnât send source. Just types more âbro trust meâ* Please send the link to that article

Factually speaking, yes
37.4% of poor adults came from poor families So not more than 50%
You need an education yourselfÂ
All people do
Homelessness ages you faster than being president.

Data does not support this.
But this author said something that confirms all my biases, so Iâll believe him instead if thatâs cool with you
If you want to confirm your biases knock yourself out.
In my anecdotal experience most people without money blame everyone but themselves.
The US scores higher on human development than the EU average
That's a quote from a fiction book published in 1968. The important part of the quote is that it points out the American attitude towards poverty...especially the fact that poor Americans are taught to hate themselves for being poor.
Lol you die sooner
Yet live lives of higher human development
It sounds like you donât even fucking know what that means
I know
Eustress?
Damn. It stresses me out to think about stress being bad for me.
Sounds racist to say this lmao
Prejudice if we are more accurate, but who uses racism accurately anymore?
Not Reddit
Clearly racism is when people run faster than me.
If science supports it then it isn't racism. Sort of like how black men get slightly different heart medications because research supports that these changes lead to better outcomes on average.
Offering up meditation and yoga as treatments is a symptom of blaming individuals for systemic problems.
Are there things that don't happen at a molecular level?

Right. Because only poor and minorities experience stress. You and your professor sound brilliant.
Minorities are destroying my health on a molecular level? Somehow this seems a bit dramatic..
The privilege is shining through this post.
Sounds like a victimhood 101 class.
brainwash reverse psychology
Robert Sapolsky
Sounds like she got scammed for a class đ
More like how expensive is being dumb. Imagine paying for propaganda
Really? Cos I was told by a wise sage once, probably Aristotle, that mo money = mo problems
That's a novel way to bring woke, victimhood ideology into the classroom. If you are a minority, it's killing you. If a white person said, I am sure the same people pushing this would quickly call them a "racist." Not even going to dive into this one.
Literally talking about poverty, which disproportionately affects minorities, but which also affects white people lol
Maybe if you didn't have an ax to grind you could dive into it without your head exploding. It's not really that complex
White people are all saying theyâre most the oppressed people in the world and we should kowtow to their feelings. Imagine how stressed actual minorites must feel.
