All the while white privilege be like I am staying home and working on zoom.
Graphic mine
In the UK we are now being told too ‘stay alert.’ Complete and utter bollocks. The right wingers in both the UK and the US want people back at work to restart the economy irrespective of the risk, BUT they frame it in a way that says it is up to us to behave responsibly. This is at a time when low skilled no skilled low paid workers are being told that they must attend work, but without any clear guidance for businesses on social distancing, and public transport being a high risk method for commuting in urban areas. Then when people inevitably end up getting sick and maybe dying the righties can blame them for their own infection. Obvs they were not alert enough to the danger, they should have been more careful… All the while white privilege be like I am staying home and working on zoom.
