"What kind of man makes sure he's okay, while watching his friends fight for their lives and die? A white man." - - Dave Chappelle.

This is actually documented in CHILDREN'S BOOKS.
"The Long Winter, " by Laura Ingalls Wilder, describes a town buried in snow, low on provisions,

...& Almanzo Wilder & Cap Garland make a crazy gamble in an attempt to save the town: they look for a mythical settler who had wheat stored up, which could feed the town & save everyone's lives.
When they FIND HIM, what does the settler say, "It's not my job to look after...

"...people who didn't save up enough for themselves."
Riiiiiiiight.
Like everyone in a town just KNEW they would be snowed-in, under a once-in-a-lifetime blizzard season, & the train would stop coming.
They SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THAT!
What's worse, is that Almanzo Wilder

...himself likely HAD enough grain boarded up in his town to feed everyone, but he didn't want to risk losing his seed wheat.
Seriously.
He was willing to let people die so he could have *better* seed wheat, when the trains finally came through again.
This is even FURTHER

...illustrated at the beginning of the book, when PA Ingalls & Laura saw a beaver (or was it a badger? Someone check this.) house, that had the thickest walls they had ever seen. Pa said, "Animals make this kind of house because they have to, but mankind is FREE AND INDEPENDENT.

"...God let's men think for themselves, so it's up to us to look at the signs, & prepare for the worst."
The entire book is a shameful commentary on haves blaming the have-nots for circumstances that are ENTIRELY beyond their control, & saying it's their own fault they suffer,

...but it PRESENTS the issue as a SUCCESSFUL example of self-reliance & digging oneself out of a pit that they SHOULD have stayed out of to begin with.
Yes.
White American people do this garbage all the time. Wr glorify it as self-reliance---until we get into trouble.

Only then do we see, "Wait a minute, there was NOTHING I could have done to prepare for this!!" Plenty of black-&-brown ppl around us are willing to say, "No shit, Sherlock, now here's how to get out." But they have every right to look us in the eye & say, "What did you expect?"

HA! I just remembered another part of this story. After Garland & Wilder DO convince the settler to sell the wheat at a super-high price (1.25/bushel) Loftus, a store-keeper, tries to sell it to the settlers at more than DOUBLE that. (3/bushel) The town & the book *skewers* him

...for being an evil profiteer, who didn't care about the townspeople. Yet, it offers ZERO judgement of Almanzo Wilder, for hiding his own grain, & of the settler, who demanded almost 50% above the current grain elevator price of wheat, (88¢/bushel) to sell it to starving ppl.

White (conservative/capitalist) people are pretty inconsistent w/how they apply their moral outrage. /end
